By integrating genetic code expansion (GCE) with rational site selection, we achieved precise incorporation of Anap that preserves protein structure and function. In live cells and neurons, Anap labeling faithfully recapitulated localization, stress-induced dynamics, and recovery behavior, outperforming conventional fluorescent tags and enabling physiologically relevant visualization of protein pathobiology.\nCompeting Interest Statement\nThe authors have declared no competing interest.\nFootnotes\nThis revision addresses all reviewer comments and suggestions, with the inclusion of new data, expanded analyses, and refined descriptions that enhance clarity and strengthen the study.","source_license":"CC-BY-4.0","license_restricted":false}
