Neural differentiation on EM grids – iNeurons sample preparation for cryo-ET and CLEM
A protocol for differentiating AAVS1-TRE3G-NGN2 hESCs to iNeurons directly on EM grids for cryo-ET and cryo-CLEM. The protocol includes: (1) EM grids coating with Matrigel or Poly-Ornithine and Laminin; (2) differentiation and seeding of iNeurons on EM grids; (3) lentiviral transduction for transient expression of fluorescently-labeled proteins; and (4) plunge freezing. Watch an interview about this protocol with Cristina Capitanio, MSc.
