Although the structure of HSV-1 has been extensively investigated, the precise organization of tegument and envelope proteins remains elusive. Here we use super-resolution imaging by direct stochastic optical reconstruction microscopy (dSTORM) in combination with a model-based analysis of single-molecule localization data, to determine the position of protein layers within virus particles. We resolve different protein layers within individual HSV-1 particles using multi-colour dSTORM imaging and discriminate envelope-anchored glycoproteins from tegument proteins, both in purified virions and in virions present in infected cells. Precise characterization of HSV-1 structure was achieved by particle averaging of purified viruses and model-based analysis of the radial distribution of the tegument proteins VP16, VP1/2 and pUL37, and envelope protein gD. From this data, we propose a model of the protein organization inside the tegument.}, language = {en} } @article{WaeldchenLehmannKleinetal.2015, author = {W{\"a}ldchen, Sina and Lehmann, Julian and Klein, Teresa and van de Linde, Sebastian and Sauer, Markus}, title = {Light-induced cell damage in live-cell super-resolution microscopy}, series = {Scientific Reports}, volume = {5}, journal = {Scientific Reports}, number = {15348}, doi = {10.1038/srep15348}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-145207}, year = {2015}, abstract = {Super-resolution microscopy can unravel previously hidden details of cellular structures but requires high irradiation intensities to use the limited photon budget efficiently. Such high photon densities are likely to induce cellular damage in live-cell experiments. We applied single-molecule localization microscopy conditions and tested the influence of irradiation intensity, illumination-mode, wavelength, light-dose, temperature and fluorescence labeling on the survival probability of different cell lines 20-24 hours after irradiation. In addition, we measured the microtubule growth speed after irradiation. The photo-sensitivity is dramatically increased at lower irradiation wavelength. We observed fixation, plasma membrane permeabilization and cytoskeleton destruction upon irradiation with shorter wavelengths. While cells stand light intensities of similar to 1 kW cm\(^{-2}\) at 640 nm for several minutes, the maximum dose at 405 nm is only similar to 50 J cm\(^{-2}\), emphasizing red fluorophores for live-cell localization microscopy. We also present strategies to minimize phototoxic factors and maximize the cells ability to cope with higher irradiation intensities.}, language = {en} } @article{ProppertWolterHolmetal.2014, author = {Proppert, Sven and Wolter, Steve and Holm, Thorge and Klein, Theresa and van de Linde, Sebastian and Sauer, Markus}, title = {Cubic B-spline calibration for 3D super-resolution measurements using astigmatic imaging}, series = {Optics Express}, volume = {22}, journal = {Optics Express}, number = {9}, issn = {1094-4087}, doi = {10.1364/OE.22.010304}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-119730}, pages = {10304-16}, year = {2014}, abstract = {In recent years three-dimensional (3D) super-resolution fluorescence imaging by single-molecule localization (localization microscopy) has gained considerable interest because of its simple implementation and high optical resolution. Astigmatic and biplane imaging are experimentally simple methods to engineer a 3D-specific point spread function (PSF), but existing evaluation methods have proven problematic in practical application. Here we introduce the use of cubic B-splines to model the relationship of axial position and PSF width in the above mentioned approaches and compare the performance with existing methods. We show that cubic B-splines are the first method that can combine precision, accuracy and simplicity.}, language = {en} }
