Live-cell imaging and analysis of actin-mediated mitochondrial fission

Current approaches, such as fixed-cell imaging or single-snapshot imaging, are insufficient to capture cytoskeleton-mediated mitochondrial fission. Here, we present a protocol to capture actin-mediated mitochondrial fission using high-resolution time-lapse imaging. We describe steps starting from ce...

Sumario:Current approaches, such as fixed-cell imaging or single-snapshot imaging, are insufficient to capture cytoskeleton-mediated mitochondrial fission. Here, we present a protocol to capture actin-mediated mitochondrial fission using high-resolution time-lapse imaging. We describe steps starting from cell preparation and mitochondria labeling through to live-cell imaging and final analysis. This approach is also applicable for analysis of multiple cytoskeleton-mediated organelle events such as vesicle trafficking, membrane fusion, and endocytic events in live cells. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Shimura et al. (2021).(1)
