19 Mapping Molecular Mechanisms of ignaling Pathways

20 ummary We have developed a set of powerful new tools, which include photostable single molecule nanoparticle optical biosensors (MNOB) and super-resolution optical nanoscopy, photostable optical nanoscope (PHOTON) We have demonstrated that MNOB and PHOTON can effectively avoid autofluorescence of cells and photo-bleaching of fluorescent probes, and achieve unprecedentedly high sensitivity to quantitatively detect and map the distribution of individual receptors on single live cells at single-molecule level and nm localization resolution. We have demonstrated that these new tools can be used to map individual binding sites of single ligand-receptor binding complexes at nm localization resolution, realtime study signaling transduction pathways of single live cells, and quantitatively sensing and imaging of rare subsets of single live cells in highly heterogeneous cell populations. We have also demonstrated that these new imaging tools can be used to study molecular mechanisms of multidrug resistance and for probing of embryonic development in vivo in real time.
