A Breakthrough Imaging Approach Visualizes Proteins in Unprecedented Detail
A new imaging approach developed by researchers at the University of California, Berkeley, has allowed them to visualize proteins in their native, complex forms. This technique, called STED-FCS (stimulated emission depletion-fluorescence correlation spectroscopy), can be applied to a variety of proteins, enabling researchers to gain an unprecedented level of insight into the structure and dynamics of proteins. This is expected to open up new possibilities for studying the roles of proteins in many biological processes.
