Localization microscopy allows visualization of biological structures with resolution well below the diffraction limit. Localization microscopy was used to study FtsZ organization in Escherichia coli previously in combination with fluorescent protein labeling, but the fact that fluorescent chimeric protein was unable to rescue temperature-sensitive ftsZ mutants suggests that obtained images may not represent native FtsZ structures faithfully. Indirect immunolabeling of FtsZ not only overcomes this problem, but also allows the use of the powerful visualization methods arsenal available for different structures in fixed cells. In this work we simultaneously obtained super-resolution images of FtsZ structures and diffraction-limited or super-resolution images of DNA and cell surface in E. coli, which allows for the study of the spatial arrangement of FtsZ structures with respect to the nucleoid positions and septum formation.
