Super-resolution fight club: assessment of 2D and 3D single-molecule localization microscopy software

Michaël Unser, Daniel Sage, Thanh-An Michel Pham, Tomas Lukes, Seamus John Holden, Anna Archetti, Thomas Pengo, Ricardo Henriques, Silvia Colabrese, Anurag Agrawal

With the widespread uptake of two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) single-molecule localization microscopy (SMLM), a large set of different data analysis packages have been developed to generate super-resolution images. In a large community effo ...

Constriction Rate Modulation Can Drive Cell Size Control and Homeostasis in C. crescentus

Suliana Manley, Seamus John Holden, Anna Archetti, Aster Louis K Vanhecke, Ambroise Justin Lambert, Felix Max Schaber

Rod-shaped bacteria typically grow first via sporadic and dispersed elongation along their lateral walls and then via a combination of zonal elongation and constriction at the division site to form the poles of daughter cells. Although constriction compris ...

Functional dichotomy and distinct nanoscale assemblies of acell cycle-c ontrolled bipolar zinc-finger regulator

Suliana Manley, Seamus John Holden

Protein polarization underlies differentiation in metazoans and in bacteria. How symmetric polarization can instate functional asymmetry remains elusive. Here, we show by super-resolution photo-activated localization microscopy and edgetic mutations that t ...

Modularity and determinants of a (bi-)polarization control system from free-living and obligate intracellular bacteria

Suliana Manley, Seamus John Holden

Although free-living and obligate intracellular bacteria are both polarized it is unclear whether the underlying polarization mechanisms and effector proteins are conserved. Here we dissect at the cytological, functional and structural level a conserved po ...

PALMsiever: a tool to turn raw data into results for single-molecule localization microscopy

Suliana Manley, Seamus John Holden, Thomas Pengo

During the past decade, localization microscopy (LM) has transformed into an accessible, commercially available technique for life sciences. However, data processing can be challenging to the non-specialist and care is still needed to produce meaningful re ...

Correction of a Depth-Dependent Lateral Distortion in 3D Super-Resolution Imaging

Suliana Manley, Kyle Michael Douglass, Seamus John Holden, Lina Carlini

Three-dimensional (3D) localization-based super-resolution microscopy (SR) requires correction of aberrations to accurately represent 3D structure. Here we show how a depth-dependent lateral shift in the apparent position of a fluorescent point source, whi ...

3D high-density localization microscopy using hybrid astigmatic/biplane imaging and sparse image reconstruction

Michaël Unser, Suliana Manley, Seamus John Holden, Lina Carlini

Localization microscopy achieves nanoscale spatial resolution by iterative localization of sparsely activated molecules, which generally leads to a long acquisition time. By implementing advanced algorithms to treat overlapping point spread functions (PSFs ...

FALCON: fast and unbiased reconstruction of high-density super-resolution microscopy data

Michaël Unser, Suliana Manley, Cédric René Jean Vonesch, Hagay Kirshner, Seamus John Holden, Lina Carlini

Super resolution microscopy such as STORM and (F) PALM is now a well known method for biological studies at the nanometer scale. However, conventional imaging schemes based on sparse activation of photo-switchable fluorescent probes have inherently slow te ...
