Microscopy from Scientific Research

MT intensity ( , t ) is obtained by averaging the MT fluorescence intensity in a box (coloured in yellow) centred at the membrane position R ( , t ) and with size dR = 5 m (indicated by the white dashed line) to obtain the angular distribution of MTs along the membrane (not to scale in the picture). The angle is computed using the orange line as a reference ( = 0). Scale bar, 20 m.
