摘要

Imaging-based spatial multi-omics technologies facilitate the analysis of higher-order genomic structures, gene transcription, and the localization of proteins and posttranslational modifications (PTMs) at the single-allele level, thereby enabling detailed observations of biological phenomena, including transcription machinery within cells and tissues. This chapter details the principles of such technologies, with a focus on DNA/RNA/immunofluorescence (IF) sequential fluorescence in situ hybridization (seqFISH). A comprehensive step-by-step protocol for image analysis is provided, covering image preprocessing, spot detection, and data visualization. For practical application, complete Jupyter Notebook codes are made available on GitHub ( https://github.com/Ochiai-Lab/seqFISH_analysis ).
