Abstract

Single-molecule super-resolution imaging is instrumental in investigating cellular architecture and organization at the nanoscale. Achieving precise 3D nanometric localization when imaging structures throughout mammalian cells, which can be multiple microns thick, requires careful selection of the illumination scheme in order to optimize the fluorescence signal to background ratio (SBR). Thus, an optical platform that combines different wide-field illumination schemes for target-specific SBR optimization would facilitate more precise 3D nanoscale studies of a wide range of cellular structures. Here, we demonstrate a versatile multimodal illumination platform that integrates the sectioning and background reduction capabilities of light sheet illumination with homogeneous, flat-field epi- and TIRF illumination. Using primarily commercially available parts, we combine the fast and convenient switching between illumination modalities with point spread function engineering to enable 3D single-molecule super-resolution imaging throughout mammalian cells. For targets directly at the coverslip, the homogenous intensity profile and excellent sectioning of our flat-field TIRF illumination scheme improves single-molecule data quality by providing low fluorescence background and uniform fluorophore blinking kinetics, fluorescence signal, and localization precision across the entire field of view. The increased contrast achieved with LS illumination, when compared with epi-illumination, makes this illumination modality an excellent alternative when imaging targets that extend throughout the cell. We validate our microscopy platform for improved 3D super-resolution imaging by two-color imaging of paxillin - a protein located in the focal adhesion complex - and actin in human osteosarcoma cells.

摘要

单分子超分辨率成像有助于在纳米尺度上研究细胞结构和组织。在对整个哺乳动物细胞(其厚度可达数微米)中的结构进行成像时,要实现精确的三维纳米级定位,需要仔细选择照明方案,以优化荧光信号与背景的比率(SBR)。因此,一个结合不同宽场照明方案以实现目标特异性SBR优化的光学平台,将有助于对各种细胞结构进行更精确的三维纳米尺度研究。在此,我们展示了一个多功能的多模态照明平台,该平台将光片照明的切片和背景降低能力与均匀的平面场落射照明和全内反射荧光(TIRF)照明相结合。我们主要使用市售部件,将照明模式之间快速便捷的切换与点扩散函数工程相结合,以实现对整个哺乳动物细胞的三维单分子超分辨率成像。对于直接位于盖玻片上的目标,我们的平面场TIRF照明方案具有均匀的强度分布和出色的切片效果,通过提供低荧光背景以及在整个视野范围内均匀的荧光团闪烁动力学、荧光信号和定位精度,提高了单分子数据质量。与落射照明相比,光片照明实现了更高的对比度,这使得这种照明模式在对贯穿整个细胞的目标进行成像时成为一个极佳的选择。我们通过对人骨肉瘤细胞中桩蛋白(一种位于粘着斑复合体中的蛋白质)和肌动蛋白进行双色成像,验证了我们的显微镜平台在改进三维超分辨率成像方面的性能。
