Single-molecule imaging has provided new insights on weak transient biomolecular interactions with micromolar to millimolar affinity. However, the limited duration of observation has hindered the study of strong and reversible interactions with sub-nanomolar affinity. We report single-molecule interaction microscopy (SMIM), which combines point accumulation for imaging in nanoscale topography (PAINT) with extended imaging durations that enables the study of antibody binding kinetics in the cellular environment. SMIM revealed heterogeneous binding kinetics and the effect of concentration and antibody valency on the association and dissociation rates on antibody-antigen interactions in their cellular environments. We thereby demonstrate SMIM as a versatile single-molecule technique for studying strong, transient biomolecular interactions.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
