Figure 5.9
Effect of myosin extraction on SHG from myofibrils. Panels a and b show myofibril SHG images
before and after myosin extraction, respectively. Panels c and d show two-photon excitation images of actin labeled
with rhodamine-phalloidin before and after myosin extraction, respectively. Panels e and f show a superposition of
SHG image (in red) and TPE image (in green) before and after the extraction. The size of the images is 20 × 20 μm
