Abstract

Size determination of subcellular structures such as inclusion bodies (IBs) and granules from fluorescent images is important for identification and structural characterization. However, it is often time-consuming just for the comparison of the average size of the structures. Here, we introduce a high-throughput procedure to represent the average size of structures in fluorescent images using Spatial Image Correlation Spectroscopy (SICS). This procedure provides an easier comparison of bodies and granular structures such as inclusion bodies (IBs) including misfolded protein aggregation, granules containing RNA (e.g., stress granules and processing bodies).
