Authors Cramer P Journal Nature Citation Nature. 2019 Sep;573(7772):45-54. Abstract The regulated transcription of genes determines cell identity and function. Recent structural studies have elucidated mechanisms that govern the regulation of transcription by RNA polymerases during the initiation and elongation phases. Microscopy studies have revealed that transcription involves the condensation

Authors Stephan T, Roesch A, Riedel D, Jakobs S Journal Scientific Reports Citation Sci Rep. 2019 Aug 27;9(1):12419. Abstract Mitochondria are highly dynamic organelles that exhibit a complex inner architecture. They exhibit a smooth outer membrane and a highly convoluted inner membrane that forms invaginations called cristae. Imaging cristae in

Authors Gregor I, Chizhik A, Karedla N, Enderlein J Journal Nanophotonics Citation Nanophotonics, 8(10), 1689-1699. Abstract Since about a decade, metal-induced energy transfer (MIET) has become a tool to measure the distance of fluorophores to a metal-coated surface with nanometer accuracy. The energy transfer from a fluorescent molecule to surface

Abstract BACKGROUND: The ultimate objective of a microscope of the highest resolution is to map the molecules of interest in

Authors Ruhlandt D, Katti A, Derouard J, Delon A, Enderlein J Journal ArXiv Citation arXiv:1907.06907. Abstract Fluorescence Correlation Spectroscopy (FCS) is a powerful single-molecule technique which allows for measuring motion (diffusion, flow), concentration, and molecular interaction kinetics of fluorescent molecules from picomolar to micromolar concentrations. It has found manifold applications
