Live-cell imaging was essentially performed as described38 (link). In brief, cells were grown overnight on rich medium (YES) to the logarithmic phase. Prior to imaging, cells were attached with lectin (Sigma) to glass-bottom dishes with a micro well (MatTek). Cells were imaged on a Zeiss AxioObserver Z1 confocal spinning disk microscope with an EMM-CCD camera (Photometrics, Evolve 512) through a Zeiss Alpha Plan/Apo ×100/1.46 oil DIC M27 objective lens. Z-stacks were obtained at focus intervals of 0.4 μm. FiJi/ImageJ software was used to measure the distances between the foci and the periphery.
For the imaging of cells expressing CFP-Mmi1, the following setup was used: confocal microscopy was performed at the Core Facility Bioimaging of the Biomedical Center (LMU Munich) with an inverted Leica SP8 X WLL microscope, equipped with 405-nm laser, WLL2 laser (470–670 nm), and acusto-optical beam splitter. Images were acquired with a HC PL APO ×93/1.30 GLYC motCORR-STED WHITE objective, and Z-stacks were obtained at focus intervals of 0.25 μm. Images were deconvolved using the SVI Huygens suite and FiJi/ ImageJ software was used to measure the distances between the foci and the periphery.
