The electron optical analog of immunofluorescence microscopy combines three developments: (i) photo-electron microscopy to produce a high-resolution image of exposed components of the cell, (ii) site-specific antibodies, and (iii) photoemissive markers coupled to the antibodies to make the distribution of sites visible. This approach, in theory, provides a way to extend the useful immunofluorescence microscopy technique to problems requiring much higher resolution. The resolution limit of fluorescence microscopy is limited to about 200 nm by the wavelength of the light used to form the image, whereas in photoelectron microscopy the image is formed by electrons (current resolution: 10-20 nm; theoretical limit: 5 nm or better depending on the electron optics). As a test system, cytoskeletons of CV-1 epithelial cells were prepared under conditions that preserve microtubules, and the microtubule networks were visualized by both indirect immunofluorescence and immunophotoelectron microscopy using colloidal gold coated with antibodies. Colloidal gold serves as a label for immunophotoelectron microscopy, providing enhanced photoemission from labeled cellular components so that they stand out against the darker background of the remaining unlabeled structures. In samples prepared for both immunofluorescence and immunophotoelectron microscopy, individual microtubules in the same cells were visualized by both techniques. The photoemission of the colloidal gold markers is sufficiently high that the microtubules are easily recognized without reference to the immunofluorescence micrographs, indicating that this approach can be used, in combination with antibodies, to correlate structure and function in cell biological studies.
