  1. Today’s Announcements • HW on rough-draft of your 5 minute oral presentation due today at 5pm. • Another HW (regular, written assignment due Wednesday in class). • “The students simply have to practice a lot and make things very clear and concise.”

  2. Today’s Announcements Individual Projects– 5 minute lecture! April 17th and 19th If you canNOT make it on April 19th send me an email with subject title: I must have talk on April 17th. 1. What is title of paper and talk. 2. Introduction (What is main general subject.) [How things move inside of a cell.] 3. Detail subject: [Molecular motors, in particular,how myosin V moves; Walks or inchworm.] 4. What is major question/problem. [Measure steps that are below the diffraction limit.] 5. What did they do to solve the problem…new techniques? [FIONA] 6. Solution [MyoV walks, hand-over-hand!] 7. One sentence summary of what the audience should take home/ remember. [Technique made that is very general, FIONA, for measuring step mechanism; showed that MyoV walks.]

  3. Grading • Did you follow outline? • Were you clear? a. Not too complex, but not too simple. b. How was your eye contact? c. Was your speaking clear? 3. Did audience get a one sentence, main message?

  4. How fine can you see? The Limits of Microscopy For visible microscopy, Resolution is limited to ~250 nm Ernst Abbe & Lord Rayleigh Ernst Abbe Recent microscopy: 1-100 nm, Here we present techniques which are able to get super-accuracy (1.5 nm) and/or super-resolution (<10 nm, 35 nm)

  5. FIONA Fluorescence Imaging with One Nanometer Accuracy Super-Accuracy (Accuracy << 250 nm: 1.5 nm, 1-500 ms) center width Center can be found much more accurately than width S/N ≈ width /√N ≈ 250/√104 ≈ 1.3 nm When light gets dim, what happens to your ability to find the center?

  6. center width Why can such a small step be measured? Diffraction limited spot: Single Molecule Sensitivity Accuracy of Center = width/ S-N = 250 nm / √104= 2.5 nm = ± 1.25nm Width of l/2 ≈250 nm Enough photons (signal to noise)…Center determined to ~1.3 nm Dye lasts 5-10x longer -- typically ~30 sec- 1 min. (up to 4 min) Start of high-accuracy single molecule microscopy Thompson, BJ, 2002; Yildiz, Science, 2003

  7. center width = derived by Thompson et al. (Biophys. J.). How well can you localize?Depend on 3 things 1. # of Photons Detected (N) 2. Pixel size of Detector(a) 3. Noise (Background) of Detector (b) (includes background fluorescence and detector noise)

  8. Biomolecular Motors: Intra- & Extra-Cellular Motion • Characteristics • nm scale • Move along tracks • intracellular directional movement • cell shape changes & extracellular movement • Use ATP as energy source D K Actin, mtubules ATP-binding heads Nature Reviews ATP  mechanical work Cargo binding Kinesin Myosin Dynein  Motor Microtubule actinMicrotubule polymer

  9. Streptavidin Quantum Dot Streptavidin conjugate Biotinylated Anti-Pentahis antibody Six-histidine tag Leucine zippered CENP-E dimer w/ six histidine-tag Axoneme or microtubule + - Motility of quantum-dot labeled Kinesin (CENP-E) 8.3 nm/step from optical trap

  10. Kinesin (Center-of-Mass) Moving Kinesin moves with 8.4 nm /ATP step size. (8.3 nm/step shown by Optical Traps ≈ 1993)

  11. Kinesin: Hand-over-hand or Inchworm? 8.3 nm 8.3 8.3 nm qs655 16.6 nm 16.6 nm 8.3 nm, 8.3 nm 16 nm 0 nm 16.6, 0, 16.6 nm, 0… [ATP] = 5 mM ; 4 msec exposure time (Originally 0.3 mM ; 500 msec exp. time) [ATP] (16.6x higher), 125x faster acq. pixel size is 160nm 2 x real time

  12. <step size> = 16.3 nm y ~ texp(-kt) 16 nm 16 nm 0 nm Takes 16 nm hand-over-hand steps Kinesin Can you derive this?

  13. Dynein Kinesin We have great x-y accuracy in vitro with fluorescent dyes and quantum dots… Can we get this accuracy in vivo? Yes…in Drosophilia cells, individual kinesin & dynein moving cooperatively(Kural, Science, 2005) dr = 1.5 nm dt = 1.1 msec

  14. Imaging (Single Molecules) with very good S/N (at the cost of seeing only a thin section very near the surface) TIR- (q > qc) Exponential decay Total Internal Reflection (TIR) Microscopy dp=(l/4p)[n12sin2i) - n22]-1/2 For glass (n=1.5), water (n=1.33): TIR angle = >57° Penetration depth = dp = 58 nm With dp = 58 nm , can excite sample and not much background.
