Counting mRNA Copies in Intact Bacterial Cells by Fluctuation Localization Imaging-Based Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization (fliFISH).
2021
A method for measuring mRNA copies in intact bacterial cells by fluctuation localization imaging-based fluorescence in situ hybridization (fliFISH) is presented. Unlike conventional single-molecule FISH, where the presence of a transcript is determined by fluorescence intensity, fliFISH relies on On-Off duty cycles of photo-switching dyes to set a predetermined threshold for distinguishing true signals from background noise. The method provides a quantitative approach for detecting and counting true mRNA copies and rejecting false signals with high accuracy.
