Mitochondrial ATP-Synthase
Comparison of a 3D reconstruction of GSD and wide-field images. Mitochondrial ATP-Synthase in MDCK cells was stained with anti-ATP-2B/Alexa647 and four image stacks each 800 nm in thickness were merged. The color code indicates the total height of the image. Courtesy of R. Jacob, Marburg, Germany…
Vesicle Protein
MDCK cells stably transfected with a vesicle membrane marker protein fused to YFP. Recombinant Protein of interest coupled with Alexa 647 was endocytosed from the apical membrane of the cell. After internalization the cells were fixed and stained with an anti-EGFP-antibody/Atto 532 to increase the…
