Here is an example of the reversibility. The first 30 min the cell is pulsed with blue light (when blue dot is shown) causing the tagged vimentin to associate with - end oriented kinesins that pull the vimentin to the cell centre. Then blue light pulsing is stopped and vimentin redistributes.

This video shows the smallest area I've managed to sever inside a U2OS cell. The goal for this experiment was to sever microtubules around a subset of the Golgi (labelled here in cyan, together with exocytic vesicles) to see what would happen to it's morphology/localization.

However in a neuron it could be a smaller area still, because diffusion is slower in neurites due to their morphology. I haven't tried to see how small the area could be in neurons though.

Good question, I would estimate an area of around 10 um^2.
