Abstract

Elucidating the local function of proteins is essential for understanding not only the individual proteins but also the organization of the cell or even tissue as a whole. However, until now, few attempts have been made to understand local proteins function in cells because of a lack of acute inactivation technique of local proteins with high versatility. Here we describe the application of the chromophore-assisted light inactivation (CALI) method to elucidate the role of the semaphorin signaling component CRMP located within the growth cone area in axon growth and growth cone turning.
