AB  - The study of G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) dimers and higher order oligomershas unveiled mechanisms for receptors to diversify signaling and potentially uncovernovel therapeutic targets. The functional and clinical significance of these receptorreceptor associations has been facilitated by the development of techniques andprotocols, enabling researchers to unpick their function from the molecularinterfaces, to demonstrating functional significance in vivo, in both health anddisease. Here we describe our methodology to study GPCR oligomerization at thesingle molecule level via super-resolution imaging. Specifically, we have employedphotoactivated localization microscopy, with photoactivatable dyes (PD-PALM) tovisualize the spatial organization of these complexes to <10nm resolution, and thequantitation of GPCR monomer, dimer and oligomer in both homomeric andheteromeric forms. We provide guidelines on optimal sample preparation, imagingparameters and necessary controls for resolving and quantifying single moleculedata. Finally, we discuss advantages and limitations of this imaging technique and itspotential future applications to the study of GPCR function.
