an elegant approach to control protein function and capture their fleeting 'interactome'.
Herein, we have resurrected 4-(trifluoromethyldiazirinyl)-phenylalanine, an underutilized
photo-crosslinker, by introducing several key features including easy synthetic access, site-
specific incorporation by 'privileged'synthetases and superior crosslinking efficiency, to
develop photo-crosslinkable bromodomains suitable for 'interactome'profiling.
