Novel approach for accurate tissue-based protein colocalization and proximity microscopy

Abstract Fluorescence colocalization microscopy is frequently used to assess potential links between distinct molecules; however, this method can lead to striking false-positive results and erroneous conclusions. Here we developed a novel approach with more sophisticated mathematical colocalization...
