    This study introduces two-color fluorescence microscopy achieving nanoscale resolution. It precisely maps protein colocalization within cells using stimulated emission depletion (STED) nanoscopy.

    Area of Science:

    • Biophysics
    • Cell Biology
    • Microscopy

    Background:

    • Achieving nanoscale spatial resolution in fluorescence microscopy is crucial for understanding cellular processes.
    • Distinguishing and correlating different molecular species within cells requires advanced imaging techniques.

    Discussion:

    • This work presents a two-color fluorescence microscopy method utilizing stimulated emission depletion (STED) for enhanced spatial resolution.
    • Selective excitation and quenching of green- and red-emitting fluorophores enable distinct imaging channels.
    • The STED beams achieve lateral resolutions of <30 nm (green) and 65 nm (red), with ~5 nm alignment accuracy.

    Key Insights:

    • Demonstrated colocalized nanoscopy of endosomal protein patterns.
    • Resolved nanoclusters of the mitochondrial protein Tom20 in relation to F(1)F(0)ATP synthase.
