摘要

Volume correlative light and electron microscopy (vCLEM) is a powerful imaging technique that enables the visualization of fluorescently labeled proteins within their ultrastructural context. Currently, vCLEM alignment relies on time-consuming and subjective manual methods. This paper presents CLEM-Reg, an algorithm that automates the three-dimensional alignment of vCLEM datasets by leveraging probabilistic point cloud registration techniques. Point clouds are derived from segmentations of common structures in each modality, created by state-of-the-art open-source methods. CLEM-Reg drastically reduces the registration time of vCLEM datasets to a few minutes and achieves correlation of fluorescent signal to submicron target structures in electron microscopy on three newly acquired vCLEM benchmark datasets. CLEM-Reg was then used to automatically obtain vCLEM overlays to unambiguously identify TGN46-positive transport carriers involved in protein trafficking between the trans-Golgi network and plasma membrane. Datasets are available on EMPIAR and BioStudies, and a napari plugin is provided to aid end-user adoption.
