AbstractFluorescence fluctuation spectroscopy provides a powerful toolbox to quantify transport dynamics and interactions between biomolecules in living cells. For example, cross-correlation analysis of spectrally separated fluctuations allows the investigation of inter-molecular interactions. This analysis is conventionally limited to two fluorophore species that are excited with a single or two different laser lines and detected in two non-overlapping spectral channels. However, signaling pathways in biological systems often involve interactions between multiple biomolecules, e.g. formation of ternary or quaternary protein complexes. Here, we present a methodology to investigate such interactions at the plasma membrane (PM) of cells, as encountered for example in viral assembly or receptor-ligand interactions. To this aim, we introduce scanning fluorescence spectral correlation spectroscopy (SFSCS), a combination of scanning fluorescence correlation spectroscopy with spectrally resolved detection and decomposition. We first demonstrate that SFSCS allows cross-talk-free cross-correlation analysis of PM-associated proteins labeled with strongly overlapping fluorescent proteins (FPs), such as mEGFP and mEYFP, excited with a single excitation line. We then verify the applicability of SFSCS for quantifying diffusion dynamics and protein oligomerization (based on molecular brightness analysis) of two protein species tagged with spectrally overlapping FPs. Adding a second laser line, we demonstrate the possibility of three- and four-species (cross-) correlation analysis using mApple and mCherry2, as examples of strongly overlapping FP tags in the red spectral region. Next, we apply this scheme to investigate the interactions of influenza A virus (IAV) matrix protein 2 (M2) with two cellular host factors simultaneously. Using the same set of fluorophores, we furthermore extend the recently presented raster spectral image correlation spectroscopy (RSICS) approach to four species analysis, successfully demonstrating multiplexed RSICS measurements of protein interactions in the cell cytoplasm. Finally, we apply RSICS to investigate the assembly of the ternary IAV polymerase complex and report a 2:2:2 stoichiometry of these protein assemblies in the nucleus of living cells.
