Testing how well biomarkers work
25 Apr 2024
LMU researchers have developed a method to determine how reliably target proteins can be labeled using super-resolution fluorescence microscopy.
Modern microscopy techniques make it possible to examine the inner workings of cells in astonishing detail. “We can now observe the arrangement and interaction of individual proteins under the microscope,” says Professor Ralf Jungmann, Chair of Molecular Physics of Life at LMU and Max Planck Fellow at the MPI of Biochemistry. The biophysicist’s team recently developed the revolutionary RESI (Resolution Enhancement by Sequential Imaging) method.
