Precise immuno-fluorescence canceling enables highly multiplexed imaging [scRNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: Cell states are regulated by extrinsic signals from various external factors such as intercellular interactions, and intrinsic gene expression. Although comprehensive cell state profiling has been attempted, it remains simultaneous analysis of signal activation has still been challenging. Multiplexed imaging is a technique acquiring multiple protein information at a single cell level as traditional immunofluorescence. However, the method often compromises resolution, hindering the analysis of intracellular localization dynamics and post-translational modifications of proteins. To address these limitations, we developed an erasable fluorescence method using disulfide linkers to label antibodies. We term these antibodies ‘Precise Emission Canceling Antibodies (PECAbs)’. PECAb allows for high-resolution iterative imaging with minimal non-specific binding. Automation enables our system to achieve reproducible quantitative analysis using 206 antibodies. The resulting quantitative data allow reconstruction of the spatiotemporal dynamics of signaling pathways over both long and short timescales. Additionally, combining this approach with sequential RNA-FISH can effectively classify cells and identify their signal activation states in human tissue. Overall, the PECAb system serves as a comprehensive platform for analyzing complex cell processes, from signal transduction to gene expression.

Project description:Spatial organization of the transcriptome has emerged as a powerful means for regulating the post-transcriptional fate of RNA in eukaryotes; however, whether prokaryotes use RNA spatial organization as a mechanism for post-transcriptional regulation remains unclear. Here we used super-resolution microscopy to image the E. coli transcriptome and observed a genome-wide spatial organization of RNA: mRNAs encoding inner-membrane proteins are enriched at the membrane, whereas mRNAs encoding outer-membrane, cytoplasmic and periplasmic proteins are distributed throughout the cytoplasm. Membrane enrichment is caused by co-translational insertion of signal peptides recognized by the signal-recognition particle. Our time-resolved RNA-sequencing and live-cell super-resolution imaging experiments revealed a physiological consequence of this spatial organization and the underlying mechanism: membrane localization enhances degradation rates of inner-membrane-protein mRNAs by placing them in proximity to membrane-bound RNA degradation enzymes. Together, these results demonstrate that the bacterial transcriptome is spatially organized and that this organization shapes the posttranscriptional Spatial organization of the transcriptome has emerged as a powerful means for regulating the post-transcriptional fate of RNA in eukaryotes; however, whether prokaryotes use RNA spatial organization as a mechanism for post-transcriptional regulation remains unclear.
