Oligonucleotide - labeled antibodies allow integration of cellular protein and transcriptome measurements at a single - cell level, with the number of simultaneously
assayed protein markers far surpassing what can be measured by cytometry - based approaches.
Fluorescence - based
assays Fluorescent
markers such as EGFP, YFP, mCherry and mTomato or fluorescent biosensors can be used to measure a variety of real - time cell - based activities, including, intracellular transport,
protein signaling, receptor desensitization, migration, division, apoptosis, metabolism, differentiation, chemotaxis, transcription and translation.
