We use biochemistry, genetics and microscopy to determine the mechanisms by which crescentin causes cell curvature.
In addition, we use traction force microscopy to determine stresses between cells and substrate.
The team used cryo-electron microscopy to determine how the tau protein interacts with the microtubules of neurons.
We used 3D confocal microscopy to determine how acid blockade affects the distribution of H. pylori in the stomach.
Now Roderick MacKinnon and colleagues have used cryo-electron microscopy to determine the structure of a mammalian CLC channel, CLC-K.
Moreover, there are relatively few reported studies using transmission electron microscopy to determine the ultrastructural characteristics of synovial cells7,8,16,17.
Pointurier, F. & Marie, O. Use of micro-Raman spectrometry coupled with scanning electron microscopy to determine the chemical form of uranium compounds in micrometer-size particles.
A majority of these studies include photoluminescence experiments to determine optical bandgaps12,20,21,25 and high-resolution transmission microscopy to determine the crystal structure26,27,28.
We next used 3WJdB in fixed-cell confocal microscopy to determine whether the cell labeling described above is due to probe internalization or to surface capture only.
The scuffed specimens were studied using optical and scanning electron microscopy to determine their scuffing mechanisms.
Samples then underwent VSM, XRD, and scanning electron microscopy to determine the orientation effect.
