Atomic resolution structure determination by the cryo-EM method MicroED.
The electron cryo-microscopy (cryoEM) method MicroED has been rapidly developing. In this review we highlight some of the key steps in MicroED from crystal analysis to structure determination. We compare and contrast MicroED and the latest X-ray based diffraction method the X-ray free-electron laser (XFEL). Strengths and shortcomings of both MicroED and XFEL are discussed. Finally, all current ...
متن کاملCryo-EM Structure Determination through Eigenvectors of Sparse Matrices
Recovering the three-dimensional structure of proteins is important for understanding their functionality. We describe a spectral graph algorithm for reconstructing the three-dimensional structure of molecules from their cryo-electron microscopy images taken at random unknown orientations. The key idea of the algorithm is designing a sparse operator defined on the projection images, whose eigen...
متن کاملDesign of a molecular support for cryo-EM structure determination.
Despite the recent rapid progress in cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM), there still exist ample opportunities for improvement in sample preparation. Macromolecular complexes may disassociate or adopt nonrandom orientations against the extended air-water interface that exists for a short time before the sample is frozen. We designed a hollow support structure using 3D DNA origami to protect com...
متن کاملStructure of myosin filaments from relaxed Lethocerus flight muscle by cryo-EM at 6 Å resolution
We describe a cryo-electron microscopy three-dimensional image reconstruction of relaxed myosin II-containing thick filaments from the flight muscle of the giant water bug Lethocerus indicus. The relaxed thick filament structure is a key element of muscle physiology because it facilitates the reextension process following contraction. Conversely, the myosin heads must disrupt their relaxed arra...
متن کاملGeometric Modeling of Tubular Structure
In this paper, we present a method for extracting center axis representations of tubular shapes obtained from medical images. The method extracts centerlines by computing minimum-cost paths from a graph based optimization algorithm which minimizes responses obtained from multi-scale medialness filters. These filters are designed from the assumption that tubular structures, in general, has circu...
