Figure Legend Snippet: Schematic workflow and representative examples for MDCK cell nuclei segmentation and tracking, kinematics and ERK signal analysis using FRET imaging videomicroscopy data (A–E) Schematic shows workflow for the analysis of cell motility, single cell ERK activity and ERK waves of MDCK cell monolayers using time-lapse FRET imaging data. The workflow starts with CFP images of MDCK cell nuclei (B, first frame shown of a 16-h recording). Nuclei are segmented with the StarDist Fiji plugin which is integrated in the Trackmate plugin (C, cell nuclei contours shown in magenta). TrackMate then tracks the nuclei generating two outputs: (1) images of single nuclei tracks (D, nuclei contours in magenta with superimposed color-coded by ID tracks) and (2) a .xml file containing all the tracking data. Tracks shown here are filtered for duration ( > 5.8 h), and nuclei migrate toward the center of the field of view (FOV) where infected cells reside (bacterial fluorescence not shown). Segmented nuclei images are processed in Fiji to generate a binary mask (E). The .xml file, binary masks and ERK activity maps (shown in F) are used as input for a MATLAB script which characterizes single-cell ERK activity and cell motility further. The MATLAB script also generates the ARCOS_matrix.csv file for ERK wave analysis in R to performed at later steps. For more details please see Hundsdorfer et al.
