    When combined with computational approaches, fluorescence imaging becomes one of the most powerful tools in biomedical research. It is possible to achieve resolution figures beyond the diffraction limit, and improve the performance and flexibility of high-resolution imaging systems with techniques such as structured illumination microscopy (SIM) reconstruction. In this study, the hardware and software implementation of an LED-based superresolution imaging system using SIM employing GPU accelerated parallel image reconstruction is presented. The sample is illuminated with two-dimensional sinusoidal patterns with various orientations and lateral phase shifts generated using a digital micromirror device (DMD). SIM reconstruction is carried out in frequency space using parallel CUDA kernel functions. Furthermore, a general purpose toolbox for the parallel image reconstruction algorithm and an infrastructure that allows all users to perform parallel operations on images without developing any CUDA kernel code is presented. The developed image reconstruction algorithm was run separately on a CPU and a GPU. Two different SIM reconstruction algorithms have been developed for the CPU as mono-thread CPU algorithm and multi-thread OpenMP CPU algorithm. SIM reconstruction of 1024 x 1024 px images was achieved in 1.49 s using GPU computation, indicating an enhancement by similar to 28 and similar to 20 in computation time when compared with mono-thread CPU computation and multi-thread OpenMP CPU computation, respectively.

    Centrioles and cilia are conserved, microtubule-based structures critical for cell function and development. Their dysfunction causes cancer and developmental disorders. How microtubules are organized into ordered structures by microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs) and tubulin modifications is best understood during mitosis but is largely unexplored for the centrioles and the ciliary axoneme, which are composed of stable microtubules that maintain their length at a steady-state. In particular, we know little about the identity of the centriolar and ciliary MAPs and how they work together during the assembly and maintenance of the cilium and centriole. Here, we identified the Enkurin domain containing 1 (ENKD1) as a component of the centriole wall and the axoneme in mammalian cells and showed that it has extensive proximity interactions with these compartments and MAPs. Using in vitro and cellular assays, we found that ENKD1 is a new MAP that regulates microtubule organization and stability. Consistently, we observed an increase in tubulin polymerization and microtubule stability, as well as disrupted microtubule organization in ENKD1 overexpression. Cells depleted for ENKD1 were defective in ciliary length and content regulation and failed to respond to Hedgehog pathway activation. Together, our results advance our understanding of the functional and regulatory relationship between MAPs and the primary cilium.
