Quantitative imaging method reveals how cells rapidly sort and transport lipids

Lipids are difficult to detect with light microscopy. Using a new chemical labeling strategy, a Dresden-based team led by André Nadler at the Max Planck Institute of Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics (MPI-CBG) and Alf Honigmann at the Biotechnology Center (BIOTEC) of TU Dresden has overcome this limitation, enabling new insights into lipids.
