Photogenerated quinone methides as protein affinity labeling reagents.
Photogenerated quinine methides (QMs) can act as highly specific light-controllable protein affinity labeling reagents, broadening their applications to the study of protein-ligand and protein-protein interactions. The reactions between QMs and nucleophiles are less heterogeneous than those of other photogenerated active intermediates such as carbenes and nitrenes, making it easier to identify labeled species.
