Agrisera antibody applied in expansion microscopy on Arabidopsis primary root
| While the technique of expansion microscopy (ExM) is commonly used in animal cells and tissues, plant-specific protocols are very few. However, the interest in this technique is growing, and Agrisera antibodies were recently applied in ExM on Arabidopsis thaliana primary roots. Using this method, called ROOT-ExM, the authors successfully imaged various organelles and subcellular compartments, including Golgi apparatus, the endoplasmic reticulum, the cytoskeleton and plasmodesmata. ExM opens new avenues for discoveries in studies of plant cells on the molecular level, as it circumvents the resolution limitations of traditional microscopy methods, and allows the revealing of finer details of cellular structures. Read the recently published article "Root expansion microscopy: A robust method for super resolution imaging in Arabidopsis". Cited Agrisera antibody: • SUN1,2 | SUN domain-containing protein 1,2 |  Agrisera polyclonal antibody to SUN1,2 | SUN domain-containing protein 1,2 (AS18 4224) was applied to visualize SUN1,2 protein using expansion microscopy (ExM) in Ar. thaliana roots. Details of the method are described here. |
