Brightfield microscopy was performed on an Axio Imager Z1 microscope (Zeiss) equipped with a TL LED lamp (Zeiss), an AxioCam MRc 5 color camera (Zeiss), and a Plan-Apochromat 100x/1.4 Oil DIC M27 objective (Zeiss). Images were acquired in ZEN 2.6 software (Zeiss). The light source intensity was set to 9.76 V and the exposure time was varied.

Yeast cells were grown as above for immunoblotting. Upon harvesting, cells were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde by incubating at room temperature for 15 min, and washed again in 1X PBS. Cells were then immobilized onto polylysine coated coverslips (Neuvrito) and mounted with ProLong™ Diamond antifade mountant with DAPI (Thermo Fisher). Fluorescence microscopy for quantification was acquired using a Zeiss Axio observer.Z1 inverted microscope equipped with a Plan-Apochromat 100x/1.4 oil DIC M27 objective (Zeiss), X-cite 120 LED system (Lumen Dynamics), filter set (HE) RFP/GFP/DAPI (Zeiss) and a digital Axiocam MRm camera (Zeiss) controlled with the Zen blue software. Raw data was collected as z-stacks and projected using ImageJ (NIH), and quantification was performed manually. Confocal microscopy of representative cells was collected on a Leica TCS SP8 inverted sSTED microscope equipped with a 100x/1.40 APO objective and using the following detection mirror settings: RFP 560–630nm, GFP 470–536. DAPI staining was detected using a blue diode 405nm laser (10%) and a photon multiplying tube. One representative middle slide was collected, and images were subsequently deconvolved and background subtracted using Huygens Professional (Scientific Volume Imaging).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
