Cover image: Photoactivated localization microscopy (PALM) detecting a bacterial membrane protein. Shown is a Bacillus subtilis cell expressing FloA-mNeonGreen. FloA is a bacterial flotillin-like protein, involved in membrane compartmentalization. PALM images were acquired in TIRF. Detected signals were filtered for PSF width (100–200 nm) and photon count (200–1000 photons). The average localization precision of detected FloA-mNeonGreen molecules is 25 nm.
