Phosphoinositides make up only a small fraction of cellular phospholipids yet control cell function in a fundamental manner. Through protein interactions, phosphoinositides define cellular organelle identity and regulate protein function and organization and recruitment at the cytosol–membrane interface. As a result, perturbations on phosphoinositide metabolism alter cell physiology and lead to a wide range of human diseases, including cancer and diabetes. Among seven phosphoinositide members, phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2, also known as PI(4,5)P2or PIP2) is abundant in the plasma membrane. Besides its role in the second messenger pathway of phospholipase C that cleaves PtdIns(4,5)P2to form diacylglycerol and inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3), PtdIns(4,5)P2regulates membrane trafficking and the function of the cytoskeleton, ion channels, and transporters. The nanoscale organization of PtdIns(4,5)P2in the plasma membrane becomes essential to understand cellular signaling specificity in time and space. Here, we describe a single-molecule method to visualize the nanoscale distribution of PtdIns(4,5)P2in the plasma membrane by using super-resolution microscopy and the dual-color fluorescent probes based on the PLCδ1pleckstrin homology (PH) domain. This approach can be extended to image other phosphoinositides by changing the specific probes.
