Light from astronomical objects must travel through the earth's turbulent atmosphere before it can be imaged by ground-based telescopes. To enable direct imaging at maximum theoretical angular resolution, advanced techniques such as those employed by the Robo-AO adaptive-optics system must be used.

Dissection and Staining of Drosophila Larval Ovaries


JoVE 2537 5/13/2011

Department of Biological Regulation, Weizmann Institute of Science

How niches and stem cells form during development is an important question with practical implications. In the Drosophila ovary, germ line stem cells and their somatic niches form during larval development. This video demonstrates how to dissect, stain and mount female gonads from late third instar (LL3) Drosophila larvae.

T-wave Ion Mobility-mass Spectrometry: Basic Experimental Procedures for Protein Complex Analysis


JoVE 1985 7/31/2010

Department of Biological Chemistry, Weizmann Institute of Science

Ion mobility-mass spectrometry is an emerging gas-phase technology that separates ions, based on their collision cross-section and mass. The method provides three-dimensional information on the overall topology and shape of protein complexes. Here, we outline a basic procedure for instrument setting and optimization, calibration of drift times, and data interpretation.

Analyzing Large Protein Complexes by Structural Mass Spectrometry


JoVE 1954 6/19/2010

Department of Biological Chemistry, Weizmann Institute of Science

Mass spectrometry has proven to be a valuable tool for analyzing large protein complexes. This method enables insights into the composition, stoichiometry and overall architecture of multi-subunit assemblies. Here, we describe, step-by-step, how to perform a structural mass spectrometry analysis, and characterize macromolecular structures.
