Flexible fitting of atomic structures into electron microscopy maps using molecular dynamics.
A novel method to flexibly fit atomic structures into electron microscopy (EM) maps using molecular dynamics simulations is presented. The simulations incorporate the EM data as an external potential added to the molecular dynamics force field, allowing all internal features present in the EM map to be used in the fitting process, while the model remains fully flexible and stereochemically corr...
متن کاملImage formation modeling in cryo-electron microscopy.
Accurate modeling of image formation in cryo-electron microscopy is an important requirement for quantitative image interpretation and optimization of the data acquisition strategy. Here we present a forward model that accounts for the specimen's scattering properties, microscope optics, and detector response. The specimen interaction potential is calculated with the isolated atom superposition...
متن کاملMacromolecular structure determination by cryo-electron microscopy.
Recent advances in transmission electron microscopy (EM) hardware, low-temperature methods and image-processing software have made cryo-EM an important complement to X-ray crystallography and NMR for macromolecular structure determination, particularly of large assemblies. This review provides a summary of the main advances and a survey of the capabilities of this approach.
متن کاملMVP-Fit: A Convenient Tool for Flexible Fitting of Protein Domain Structures with Cryo-Electron Microscopy Density Map
Summary: MVP-Fit is a visualization tool for interactive fitting atomic protein domain structures with the cryo-Electron Microscopy density map. To achieve the best match, the program can conveniently adjust the loop and tail outliers of individual domains to accommodate the local conformational changes from the rigid-body rotation and translation of protein domains. Availability: The MVP-Fit p...
متن کاملCohomology of Cryo-Electron Microscopy
The goal of cryo-electron microscopy (EM) is to reconstruct the 3-dimensional structure of a molecule from a collection of its 2-dimensional projected images. In this paper, we show that the basic premise of cryo-EM—patching together 2-dimensional projections to reconstruct a 3-dimensional object—is naturally one of Čech cohomology with SO(2)-coefficients. We deduce that every cryoEM reconstruc...
