Article describe the preparation of cells for correlative electron microscopy after live light microscopic observation of fluorescently labeled cytoskeletal proteins microinjected into the same cells. Since identification of cytoskeletal elements in electron microscopic preparations is an essential part of any correlative study, procedures for immunogold labeling of cytoskeletal components and for myosin S1 decoration of actin filaments are also described. - [Read Electron Microscopy of the Cytoskeleton of Cultured Cells]

Protocol describes a method for plating cells for microinjection onto etched coverslips. The coverslips for microinjection must be marked so that microinjected cells can be identified at time points after injection. - [Read Plating Cells for Microinjection Protocol]
