There is a limited range of methods available to characterize macromolecular organization in cells on length scales from 5–50 nm. We review methods currently available and show the latest results from a new single-molecule localization-based method, fluorophore localization imaging with photobleaching (FLImP), using the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor (EGFR) as an example system. Our measurements show that FLImP is capable of achieving spatial resolution in the order of 6 nm.
