BACKGROUND: Cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET) enables the 3D visualization of cellular organization in near-native state which plays important roles in the field of structural cell biology. However, due to the low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), large ...
Cellular electron cryo-tomography enables the 3D visualization of cellular organization in the near-native state and at submolecular resolution. However, the contents of cellular tomograms are often complex, making it difficult to automatically isola...
Structural heterogeneity in single-particle cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) data represents a major challenge for high-resolution structure determination. Unsupervised classification may serve as the first step in the assessment of structural hete...
BACKGROUND: Single-particle cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) has become a mainstream tool for the structural determination of biological macromolecular complexes. However, high-resolution cryo-EM reconstruction often requires hundreds of thousands ...
Atomic structure modeling is a crucial step in determining the structures of protein complexes using cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM). This work introduces DEMO-EMol, an improved server that integrates deep learning-based map segmentation and chain...
In this issue of Structure, Chang et al. combined deep-learning cryoelectron microscopy (cryo-EM) particle picking and heterogeneous refinement to obtain structures of human uromodulin filament lattices that were isolated from urine samples. This wor...
Advancements in structural biology have significantly deepened our understanding of plant proteins, which are central to critical biological functions such as photosynthesis, metabolism, signal transduction, and structural architechture. Gaining insi...
Cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET) is an essential tool in structural biology, uniquely capable of visualizing three-dimensional macromolecular complexes within their native cellular environments, thereby providing profound molecular-level insights. ...
Cryogenic electron microscopy (CryoEM) produces structures of macromolecules at near-atomic resolution. However, building molecular models with good stereochemical geometry from those structures can be challenging and time-consuming, especially when ...
