Abstract

T-cell protein microclusters have until recently been investigable only as microscale entities with their composition and structure being discerned by biochemistry or diffraction-limited light microscopy. With the advent of super resolution microscopy comes the ability to interrogate the structure and function of these clusters at the single molecule level by producing highly accurate pointillist maps of single molecule locations at ~20nm resolution. Analysis tools have also been developed to provide rich descriptors of the pointillist data, allowing us to pose questions about the nanoscale organization which governs the local and cell wide responses required of a migratory T-cell.
