    Abstract Protein organization modification plays a vital role in initiating signaling pathways, transcriptional regulation, and cell apoptosis regulation. Simultaneous quantification of oligomeric state and cellular parameters in the same cell, even though challenging, is required to understand their correlation at the molecular level. Recent advances of fluorescence protein and single-molecule localization microscopy enables the determination of localizations and oligomeric states of target proteins in cells. We reviewed the fluorescence intensity-based, localization-based, and photophysical property-based approaches for in-cell quantification of protein oligomeric stoichiometry. We discussed their working principles, applications, advantages, and limitations. These results also imply the combination of methodologies targeting different biological parameters at the single-cell level is essential to uncover the structure-function relationship at the molecular level.

    Abstract Superoxide Dismutase 1 (SOD1) is an antioxidant enzyme that protects the cells from radical oxygen species. To study the behavior of endogenous SOD1 under a microscope, we genetically modified H1 human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) to express SOD1 fused with a SNAP-tag, a protein tag that can be covalently labeled with a variety of synthetic probes. The engineered homozygous clone expressing SOD1-SNAP fusion proteins has normal stem cell morphology and karyotype, expresses pluripotency markers, and can be differentiated into all three germ layers in vitro, providing a versatile platform for imaging-based studies of SOD1.

    Abstract ATOX1 is a copper chaperone involved in intracellular copper homeostasis, cell proliferation, and tumor progression. To investigate the physiologically relevant molecular mechanism of ATOX1 by using imaging-based approaches, we genetically modified ATOX1 in H1 hESCs to express mCherry-ATOX1 fusion protein under endogenous regulatory machinery. The fluorescence engineered hESC clone maintains characteristic stem cell features and can differentiate to all three germ layers, serving as a unique tool to dissect the role of ATOX1 in various cellular processes.

    Abstract Transitions between different oligomeric states of membrane proteins are essential for proper cellular functions. However, the quantification of their oligomeric states in cells is technically challenging. Here we developed a new method to quantify oligomeric state(s) of highly expressed membrane proteins using the probability density function of molecule density (PDFMD) calculated from super-resolution localizations. We provided the theoretical model of PDFMD, discussed the effects of protein concentration, cell geometry, and photophysics of fluorescent proteins on PDFMD, and provided experimental criteria for proper quantification of oligomeric states. This method was further validated using simulated single-molecule fluorescent movies and applied to two membrane proteins, UhpT and SbmA in E. coli. The study shows that PDFMD is useful in quantifying oligomeric states of membrane proteins in cells that can help in understanding cellular tasks. Potential applications to proteins with higher oligomeric states under high concentration and limitations of our methodology were also discussed.
