This axon initial segment (AIS), imaged with stochastic optical reconstruction microscopy (STORM), was labeled for IV spectrin (magenta) and II spectrin (green) using DNA-PAINT. The image reveals a periodic cytoskeleton at the AIS consisting of II and IV spectrin. The STORM image is superimposed on cultured hippocampal neurons immunostained using antibodies against MAP2 (blue) and IV spectrin (red). For more information, see the article by Huang et al. (pages 11311–11322) and the article by Huang et al. (pages 11323–11334).
