三维电子显微镜工具彻底改变了我们对生物学中细胞结构和分子复合体的理解。在这里,我们描述了研究两种单细胞寄生虫-布氏锥虫和墨西哥利什曼原虫鞭毛超微结构和生物发生的方法。我们描述了这些寄生虫的制备方法,用于扫描电子显微镜、细胞电子断层扫描和连续块面扫描电子显微镜(SBFSEM)。这些寄生虫具有高度有序的细胞形状和形式,内部细胞骨架结构和细胞器具有明确的定位。我们展示了如何利用这些知识来解剖这两种寄生虫的细胞周期,并识别布氏毛滴虫的旧鞭毛和新鞭毛。最后,我们演示了使用SBFSEM三维模型对单个完整细胞进行分析,展示了这项技术在未来突变细胞系研究中的极大潜力。
Three-dimensional electron microscopy tools have revolutionized our understanding of cell structure and molecular complexes in biology. Here, we describe methods for studying flagellar ultrastructure and biogenesis in two unicellular parasites—Trypanosoma brucei and Leishmania mexicana. We describe methods for the preparation of these parasites for scanning electron microscopy cellular electron tomography, and serial block face scanning electron microscopy (SBFSEM). These parasites have a highly ordered cell shape and form, with a defined positioning of internal cytoskeletal structures and organelles. We show how knowledge of these can be used to dissect cell cycles in both parasites and identify the old flagellum from the new in T. brucei. Finally, we demonstrate the use of SBFSEM three-dimensional models for analysis of individual whole cells, demonstrating the excellent potential this technique has for future studies of mutant cell lines.
