Comparison of the Increased Level of Cellular Detail

Caption

The green fluorescence shows the location of an autophagy-related protein involved in the early stages of autophagosome formation and red fluorescence identifies the cell's endoplasmic reticulum. Blending the STORM and wide-field images (top) demonstrates the resolution enhancement achieved using STORM super resolution microscopy over convention methods (bottom). This enhancement yields novel information on the developing pre-autophagosomal structure.
