Abstract
Single particle fluorescence imaging (SPFI) is a technique for visualising individual cell surface receptors. The aim of the project is to further develop the methodology using an advanced fluorescence imaging system with improved time-resolution and sensitivity. The new system will be used: a) for detailed studies of the movements of cell surface receptors; b) to enhance existing BBSRC-funded studies of MHC Class II molecules; c) to develop a co- localisation method for detecting receptor associations.
