Combined with other rapidly developing technologies such as clustered regularly interspaced palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated protein 9 (Cas9) system, proteomics, super-resolution microscopy and proximity labeling, a large variety of genetically encoded tags have been developed in the last two decades. In this review, I focus on the current status of tag development for electron microscopic (EM) visualization of proteins with metal particle labeling. Compared with conventional immunoelectron microscopy using gold particles, tag-mediated metal particle labeling has several advantages that could potentially improve the sensitivity, spatial and temporal resolution, and applicability to a wide range of proteins of interest (POIs). It may enable researchers to detect single molecules in situ, allowing the quantitative measurement of absolute numbers and exact localization patterns of POI in the ultrastructural context. Thus, genetically encoded tags for EM could revolutionize the field as green fluorescence protein did for light microscopy, although we still have many challenges to overcome before reaching this goal."}],"project":[{"name":"In situ analysis of single channel subunit composition in neurons: physiological implication in synaptic plasticity and behaviour","call_identifier":"H2020","_id":"25CA28EA-B435-11E9-9278-68D0E5697425","grant_number":"694539"}],"pmid":1,"quality_controlled":"1","scopus_import":"1","date_created":"2022-03-20T23:01:39Z","oa_version":"Published Version","date_published":"2022-03-01T00:00:00Z","user_id":"4359f0d1-fa6c-11eb-b949-802e58b17ae8","article_processing_charge":"No","article_type":"original","type":"journal_article","publication_identifier":{"issn":["2050-5698"],"eissn":["2050-5701"]},"month":"03","status":"public","ec_funded":1,"title":"Electron microscopic visualization of single molecules by tag-mediated metal particle labeling"}
