Ultra high-speed single-molecule fluorescence imaging.

Abstract

In two articles in this issue, Fujiwara et al. developed an ultrasensitive high-speed camera capable of single-molecule fluorescence imaging at a microsecond timescale (2023. J. Cell Biol.https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.202110160). This major leap in detection speed enables the organization of plasma membrane and integrin-based adhesions to be probed in unprecedented detail (2023. J. Cell Biol.https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.202110162).
