Summary
Here, we apply multi-color single-molecule localization microscopy (SMLM) coupled with robust data-mining algorithms to quantitatively visualize replication fork (RF)-coupled formation and spatial-association of endogenous G4s.
Usefulness & Problems
Why this is useful
This method is used to quantitatively visualize endogenous G4 structures that form in association with replication forks. In this paper it is specifically applied to map RF-coupled G4 formation and spatial association.; quantitatively visualizing replication-fork-coupled formation of endogenous G4s; measuring spatial association of endogenous G4s with replication fork features

Published Workflows
Objective: Quantitatively visualize endogenous replication-fork-coupled G4 formation and use those measurements to investigate how G4s affect replisome dynamics, organization, and local replication stress signaling.
Why it works: The workflow combines multi-color single-molecule imaging with quantitative data mining so that endogenous G4 formation can be visualized in spatial relation to replication fork components and then linked to replisome organization and signaling effects.

The abstract supports that the imaging workflow requires multi-color SMLM and accompanying data-mining algorithms. It does not specify labels, probes, or hardware details.; used in combination with robust data-mining algorithms
The abstract does not show that SMLM alone establishes all causal mechanisms of G4 resolution or signaling. Mechanistic interpretation still depends on associated factor analysis such as RPA and FANCJ.; abstract does not specify throughput, resolution limits, or required labeling reagents
