Murine Cath.a differentiated (CAD) cells - Actin
Accession number BBBC052 · Version 1
Example images
Biological application
These are super-resolution images of the actin cytoskeleton with genetic and small molecule perturbations targeted towards specific actin binding proteins. See https://doi.org/10.1016/j.patter.2021.100367 for more details about the perturbations.
Images
The actin cytoskeleton is visualized using phalloidin conjugated to an AlexaFluor 488 or 568 dye. Images were acquired with a laser scanning confocal microscope using an Apo TIRF 60X 1.49 NA objective. Deconvolution-based super-resolution confocal microscopy was performed by acquiring z-stacks using oversampled 0.03 μm pixels and then deconvolving the images using the Landweber algorithm, resulting in images with approximately 150 nm resolution. Images are size 2048 x 2048 pixels, 16 bit .tiff format.
