All other fluorescent images are acquired on a Nikon Ti‐E automated epifluorescent microscope. The microscope was equipped with a DS‐Qi2 camera and a Lumencor Sola SE II 365 LED lamp. The filters sets were provided by Nikon for DAPI (DAPI‐5060C), Alexa Fluor 488 (FITC‐3540C), and Alexa Fluor 568 (mCherry C M343564, Sembrock)). The objectives used were Apo 20× Lambda, numerical aperture 0.75 (Nikon). We used a hardware‐based autofocusing system called the perfect focus system (PFS) from Nikon to automatically focus the cells in the field of view.
Apochromat 20
The Apochromat 20× is a high-quality objective lens manufactured by Zeiss. It is designed to provide a high degree of optical correction, minimizing chromatic and spherical aberrations. The lens has a numerical aperture of 0.80 and a working distance of 0.17 mm.

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.
