Abstract
Optogenetics enables the spatio-temporally precise control of cell and animal behavior. Many optogenetic tools are driven by light-controlled protein-protein interactions (PPIs) that are repurposed from natural light-sensitive domains (LSDs). Applying light-controlled PPIs to new target proteins is challenging because it is difficult to predict which of the many available LSDs, if any, will yield robust light regulation. As a consequence, fusion protein libraries need to be prepared and tested, but methods and platforms to facilitate this process are currently not available. Here, we developed a genetic engineering strategy and vector library for the rapid generation of light-controlled PPIs. The strategy permits fusing a target protein to multiple LSDs efficiently and in two orientations. The public and expandable library contains 29 vectors with blue, green or red light-responsive LSDs, many of which have been previously applied ex vivo and in vivo. We demonstrate the versatility of the approach and the necessity for sampling LSDs by generating light-activated caspase-9 (casp9) enzymes. Collectively, this work provides a new resource for optical regulation of a broad range of target proteins in cell and developmental biology.

Abstract
The direct release of dialkylanilines was achieved by controlling the outcome of a photorearrangement reaction promoted by the (8-cyano-7-hydroxyquinolin-2-yl)methyl (CyHQ) photoremovable protecting group. The substrate scope was investigated to obtain structure-activity relationships and to propose a reaction mechanism. Introducing a methyl substituent at the 2-methyl position of the CyHQ core enabled the bypass of the photorearrangement and significantly improved the aniline release efficiency. We successfully applied the strategy to the photoactivation of mifepristone (RU-486), an antiprogestin drug that is also used to induce the LexPR gene expression system in zebrafish and the gene-switch regulatory system based on the pGL-VP chimeric regulator in mammals.

Abstract
Many biological processes are naturally regulated with spatiotemporal control. In order to perturb and investigate them, optochemical tools have been developed that convey similar spatiotemporal precision. Pivotal to optochemical probes are photolabile protecting groups, so called caging groups, and recent developments have enabled new applications to cellular processes, including cell signaling. This review focuses on the advances made in the field of caging groups and their application in cell signaling through caged molecules such as neurotransmitters, lipids, secondary messengers, and proteins.

Abstract
Evolutionary conservation and experimental tractability have made animal model systems invaluable tools in our quest to understand human embryogenesis, both normal and abnormal. Standard genetic approaches, particularly useful in understanding monogenic diseases, are no longer sufficient as research attention shifts toward multifactorial outcomes. Here, we examine this progression through the lens of holoprosencephaly (HPE), a common human malformation involving incomplete forebrain division, and a classic example of an etiologically complex outcome. We relate the basic underpinning of HPE pathogenesis to critical cell-cell interactions and signaling molecules discovered through embryological and genetic approaches in multiple model organisms, and discuss the role of the mouse model in functional examination of HPE-linked genes. We then outline the most critical remaining gaps to understanding human HPE, including the conundrum of incomplete penetrance/expressivity and the role of gene-environment interactions. To tackle these challenges, we outline a strategy that leverages new and emerging technologies in multiple model systems to solve the puzzle of HPE.

Abstract
o-Nitrobenzyl (o-NB) derivatives are the most widely applied photoremovable groups for the study of dynamic biological processes. By introducing different substituents to the benzylic position we were able to generate a fluorescence signal upon irradiation. This signal originates from the formation of a nitrosoketone by-product able to achieve a keto-enol tautomerism leading to pi-conjugated α-hydroxystilbene derivatives. These o-NB caging groups can be used to directly monitor the uncaging event by the release of a detectable fluorescent side-product.

Abstract
Horseradish peroxidase (HRP) and fluorogen-dextran conjugate are tracers extensively used for injection-based lineage tracing. However, HRP is sensitive to proteolytic digestion, whereas the high-molecular-weight dextran may have antigenicity. Small molecular tracers can overcome these problems, but they usually diffuse from labeled cells, causing inaccurate information. Herein, we developed a small-molecular-weight fluorogen with aggregation-induced emission (AIEgen) for embryonic cell tracing with strong signals against tracer dilution caused by cell division. Once injected into the ancestor cells, the AIEgen can be entrapped in the cells without leakage because of the two hydrophilic and neutral arms. Consequently, it can specifically trace the progenies of the treated ancestor cells. More importantly, the operating concentration of AIEgen can be much higher than that of fluorogens with aggregation-caused quenching, which provides bright signals in daughter cells during embryonic cell tracing, thus overcoming the problem of fast signal degradation typically encountered with the use of traditional cell tracers.

Abstract
Expanding the genetic code to enable the incorporation of unnatural amino acids into proteins in biological systems provides a powerful tool for studying protein structure and function. While this technology has been mostly developed and applied in bacterial and mammalian cells, it recently expanded into animals, including worms, fruit flies, zebrafish, and mice. In this review, we highlight recent advances toward the methodology development of genetic code expansion in animal model organisms. We further illustrate the applications, including proteomic labeling in fruit flies and mice and optical control of protein function in mice and zebrafish. We summarize the challenges of unnatural amino acid mutagenesis in animals and the promising directions toward broad application of this emerging technology.

Abstract
The plant cell wall surrounds and protects the cells. To divide, plant cells must synthesize a new cell wall to separate the two daughter cells. The cell plate is a transient polysaccharide-based compartment that grows between daughter cells and gives rise to the new cell wall. Cellulose constitutes a key component of the cell wall, and mutants with defects in cellulose synthesis commonly share phenotypes with cytokinesis-defective mutants. However, despite the importance of cellulose in the cell plate and the daughter cell wall, many open questions remain regarding the timing and regulation of cellulose synthesis during cell division. These questions represent a critical gap in our knowledge of cell plate assembly, cell division and growth. Here, we review what is known about cellulose synthesis at the cell plate and in the newly formed cross-wall and pose key questions about the molecular mechanisms that govern these processes. We further provide an outlook discussing outstanding questions and possible future directions for this field of research.

Abstract
In nature, a multitude of mechanisms have emerged for regulating biological processes and, specifically, protein activity. Light as a natural regulatory element is of outstanding interest for studying and modulating protein activity because it can be precisely applied with regard to a site of action, instant of time, or intensity. Naturally occurring photoresponsive proteins, predominantly those containing a light-oxygen-voltage (LOV) domain, have been characterized structurally and mechanistically and also conjugated to various proteins of interest. Immediate advantages of these new photoresponsive proteins such as genetic encoding, no requirement of chemical modification, and reversibility are paid for by difficulties in predicting the envisaged activity or type and site of domain fusion. In this article, we summarize recent advances and give a survey on currently available design concepts for engineering photoswitchable proteins.

Abstract
miRNAs are key cellular regulators and their dysregulation is associated with many human diseases. They are usually produced locally in a spatiotemporally controlled manner to target mRNAs and regulate gene expression. Thus, developing chemical tools for manipulating miRNA with spatiotemporal precise is critical for studying miRNA. Herein, we designed a strategy to control miRNA biogenesis with light controllable inhibitor targeting the pre-miRNA processing by Dicer. By conjugating two non-inhibiting units, a low affinity Dicer inhibitor and a pre-miRNA binder, through a photocleavable linker, the bifunctional molecule obtained could inhibit miRNA production. Taking advantage of the photocleavable property of the linker, the bifunctional inhibitor can be fragmented into separate non-inhibiting units and therefore be deactivated by light. We expect that this strategy could be applied to generate chemical biological tools that allow light-mediated spatiotemporal control of miRNA maturation and contribute to the study of miRNA function.

Abstract
Cell-lineage tracing is used to study embryo development and stem-cell differentiation as well as to document tumor cell heterogeneity. Cre recombinase-mediated cell labeling is the preferred approach; however, its utility is restricted by when and where DNA recombination takes place. We generated a photoactivatable Cre recombinase by replacing a critical residue in its active site with a photocaged lysine derivative through genetic code expansion in zebrafish embryos. This allows high spatiotemporal control of DNA recombination by using 405 nm irradiation. Importantly, no background activity is seen before irradiation, and, after light-triggered removal of the caging group, Cre recombinase activity is restored. We demonstrate the utility of this tool as a cell-lineage tracer through its activation in different regions and at different time points in the early embryo. Direct control of Cre recombinase by light will allow more precise DNA recombination, thereby enabling more nuanced studies of metazoan development and disease.

Abstract
Today we are poised for a transition from the highly customized crafting of specific molecular targets by hand to the increasingly general and automated assembly of different types of molecules with the push of a button. Creating machines that are capable of making many different types of small molecules on demand, akin to that which has been achieved on the macroscale with 3D printers, is challenging. Yet important progress is being made toward this objective with two complementary approaches: 1) Automation of customized synthesis routes to different targets by machines that enable the use of many reactions and starting materials, and 2) automation of generalized platforms that make many different targets using common coupling chemistry and building blocks. Continued progress in these directions has the potential to shift the bottleneck in molecular innovation from synthesis to imagination, and thereby help drive a new industrial revolution on the molecular scale.
