Practice question
Question
To investigate the relationship between microtubules and centrioles in fixed HeLa cells using an epifluorescence microscope, a researcher plans to conduct immunostaining using antibodies against tubulin and centrin ( centriolar protein). After the incubation with the primary antibodies and wash, she/he plans to use secondary antibodies that bind to the primary antibodies. Below is a list of secondary antibodies carrying various fluorophores (dyes) available to the researcher. A. Alexa 568 B . FITC C . Alexa 488 D . Alexa 647 Select the correct combinations of the appropriate dyes that the researcher would typically utilize to observe co‐localization in an epifluorescence microscope?
Explanation
Analysis of to investigate the relationship between microtubules and shows A and C represents established outcome. functional assays supports option A, whereas distractors confuse substrate or regulatory direction and fail to reproduce observed results.
