Fluorescence microscopy is the essential technique for investigation of the intracellular distribution of macromolecules and various organelles also in yeast cells. In this chapter, detailed practical procedures for fluorescence microscopic observations developed or adopted in our laboratory are described. These include labeling of the cell wall and chitin, F-actin structures, nuclear and mitochondrial DNA, and two different procedures for investigation of yeast cells by immunofluorescence. In addition, our experience with multicolor labeling experiments is introduced and discussed.
