In this review, we discuss multi-color single-molecule imaging and tracking strategies for
studying microbial cell biology. We first summarize and compare the methods in a detailed …

Bacteria are microorganisms central to health and disease, serving as important model
systems for our understanding of molecular mechanisms and for developing new …

Bacteria as single-cell organisms are important model systems to study cellular mechanisms
and functions. In recent years and with the help of advanced fluorescence microscopy …

In addition to the inherent interest stemming from their ecological and human health impacts,
microbes have many advantages as model organisms, including ease of growth and …

Fluorescence microscopy is an essential tool for the exploration of cell growth, division,
transcription and translation in eukaryotes and prokaryotes alike. Despite the rapid …

To understand basic principles of living organisms one has to know many different
properties of all cellular components, their mutual interactions but also their amounts and …

Single-molecule fluorescence microscopy enables biological investigations inside living
cells to achieve millisecond-and nanometer-scale resolution. Although single-molecule …

Fluorescent proteins and developments in superresolution (nanoscopy) and single-
molecule techniques bring high sensitivity, speed, and one order of magnitude gain in …

Single-molecule fluorescence microscopy studies of bacteria provide unique insights into
the mechanisms of cellular processes and protein machineries in ways that are unrivalled by …

With the realization that bacteria display phenotypic variability among cells and exhibit
complex subcellular organization critical for cellular function and behavior, microscopy has …
