Imaging individual mRNA molecules using multiple singly labeled probes
We describe a method for imaging individual mRNA molecules in fixed cells by probing each mRNA species with 48 or more short, singly labeled oligonucleotide probes. This makes each mRNA molecule visible as a computationally identifiable fluorescent spot via fluorescence microscopy. We demonstrate si...
