项目摘要

Project Summary This project describes a technology development effort that will generate three complementary methods for measuring Protein-Protein Interaction (PPI) kinetic rates between membrane proteins. In Aim 1, we develop a new algorithmic approach for single-particle tracking analysis that generates trajectories from image/movie data. It is based on Bayesian inference strategy. We then extend this to extracting kinetic rates of PPIs from two color single particle tracking data. In Aim 2, we develop a ‘smart’ microscope that is capable of adapting illumination and frame rates when a PPI is imminent (particles diffuse close to each other), thereby reducing photobleaching, allowing long-term tracking with organic fluorophores and gaining a factor of 10 to 50 in imaging speed during an interaction. In Aim 3 we implement and demonstrate a ‘quantum imaging’ approach for making a quantum optimal estimation of the distance between two fluorophores of the same type. This method can estimate the distance between incoherent point sources with an uncertainty in the distance measurement near the limit of any possible measurement and substantially better than classical image-then-estimate approaches. In practice, it gives the benefits of two-color tracking using a simplified one-color labeling scheme. Direct detection of PPIs at the single molecule level in living cells is difficult because labeling must be done at densities low enough for single fluorescent labels to be identified and detected with diffraction limited optics. Since molecules must come into contact with each other to initiate a PPI, often through diffusion limited processes, the observed interactions can be temporally rare. The new methods proposed here will allow for other fluorophores, including organic dyes and fluorescent proteins, to be used to quantify PPIs. Our long-term goal is to provide a set of methods that can report on the dynamics of various types of PPIs. The rationale for the proposed Aims is that by providing these new methods, a wider range of PPIs can be studied on living cells, opening new doors for biomedical research. This technology development project is a collaboration between three investigators with complementary expertise. K. Lidke (PI) is an expert on single molecule imaging and microscopy development. F. Becerra (co-PI) is a world leader in the area of ultra-sensitive measurements of coherent states of light using optimized photon counting measurements with fast feedback. D. Lidke (co-I) has developed and applied innovative single molecule techniques to quantify PPI in living cells.

项目摘要该项目描述了一项技术开发工作，将产生三种互补的方法，测量膜蛋白之间的蛋白质-蛋白质相互作用（PPI）动力学速率。在目标1中，我们开发了一个单粒子跟踪分析的新算法方法，从图像/电影生成轨迹数据它是基于贝叶斯推理策略。然后，我们将其扩展到提取PPI的动力学速率，双色单粒子跟踪数据。在目标2中，我们开发了一种能够适应当PPI即将到来时（粒子彼此靠近地扩散），光漂白，允许有机荧光团的长期跟踪，并获得10至50的因子，在交互过程中的成像速度。在目标3中，我们实现并演示了一种“量子成像”方法用于对相同类型的两个荧光团之间的距离进行量子最佳估计。这该方法可以在距离不确定的情况下估计非相干点源之间的距离测量接近任何可能的测量极限，并大大优于经典的先成像后估计方法。在实践中，它使用简化的单色标签方案。在活细胞中在单分子水平上直接检测PPI是困难的，因为标记必须在密度低到足以使单个荧光标记物被衍射限制光学器件识别和检测。由于分子必须相互接触以启动PPI，通常通过扩散限制过程中，观察到的相互作用可能是暂时罕见的。这里提出的新方法将允许其他荧光团，包括有机染料和荧光蛋白，用于定量PPI。我们的长期目标是提供一套方法，可以报告各种类型的PPI的动态。的理由提出的目标是，通过提供这些新方法，可以在活体上研究更广泛的PPI 细胞，为生物医学研究打开了新的大门。该技术开发项目是三名研究人员之间的合作，具有互补性专业知识K.
