Photoaffinity-labeled prenylcysteines (1 and 2) incorporating a diazotrifluoropropionamide-based photophore have been prepared. Photolyses of 2 in the presence of RhoGDI, a protein that interacts with prenylated proteins, and prenylcysteine-containing competitors demonstrate the effectiveness of this photoaffinity-labeled analogue as a tool for studying isoprenoid binding sites.
