A microscopy picture. The image shows three large, irregularly shaped structures in bright purple with glowing orange centers. Each structure has a dark oval area outlined in orange, giving the impression of a central core. The outer edges of the purple areas are uneven and slightly frayed, while the orange regions appear speckled with bright yellow and white dots. The background is entirely black.

Illustration of the study results. On the left, a multicolored 3D protein complex is shown with a large red dart pointing to a small purple region, highlighting a specific target. A wrench labeled “iAPC/C” appears to interact with the protein, symbolizing inhibition. To the right of the wrench, five differently shaped structures made of helices and loops are displayed in matching colors. In the top-right corner, a circular inset shows a microscopy image featuring blue circular cells with green spots, indicating intracellular localization. A large checkmark overlays the image, suggesting successful experimental validation.
