Structure of infective Getah virus at 2.8 Å resolution determined by cryo-electron microscopy

open access: yesCell Discovery, 2022
Getah virus (GETV), a member of the genus alphavirus, is a mosquito-borne pathogen that can cause pyrexia and reproductive losses in animals. Although antibodies to GETV have been found in over 10% of healthy people, there are no reports of clinical ...

Structural basis for genome packaging, retention, and ejection in human cytomegalovirus

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is the prototypical member of the β-herpesvirinae subfamily and the leading viral cause of congenital infections that can lead to birth defects and it can also cause life-threatening disease in immunocompromised individuals ...

Nearly complete structure of bacteriophage DT57C reveals architecture of head-to-tail interface and lateral tail fibers

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
The T5 family of viruses are tailed bacteriophages characterized by a long non-contractile tail. The bacteriophage DT57C is closely related to the paradigmal T5 phage, though it recognizes a different receptor (BtuB) and features highly divergent lateral

Measuring the effects of ice thickness on resolution in single particle cryo-EM

open access: yesJournal of Structural Biology: X, 2023
Ice thickness is a critical parameter in single particle cryo-EM – too thin ice can break during imaging or exclude the sample of interest, while ice that is too thick contributes to more inelastic scattering that precludes obtaining high resolution ...

Cryo‐electron microscopy of vitreous sections [PDF]

open access: yesThe EMBO Journal, 2004
Since the beginning of the 1980s, cryo-electron microscopy of a thin film of vitrified aqueous suspension has made it possible to observe biological particles in their native state, in the absence of the usual artefacts of dehydration and staining.

Best practice: setting up and operating a mid-sized cryo-EM facility

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2023
Ever since the resolution revolution in 2013, cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) has become a powerful methodology in structural biology that is especially suited to study the structure of large flexible molecular complexes.

4D Cryo-Electron Microscopy of Proteins [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American Chemical Society, 2013
Cryo-electron microscopy is a form of transmission electron microscopy that has been used to determine the 3D structure of biological specimens in the hydrated state and with high resolution. We report the development of 4D cryo-electron microscopy by integrating the fourth dimension, time, into this powerful technique.

Cryo-electron Microscopy of Membrane Proteins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Electron crystallography is used to study membrane proteins in the form of planar, two-dimensional (2D) crystals, or other crystalline arrays such as tubular crystals. This method has been used to determine the atomic resolution structures of bacteriorhodopsin, tubulin, aquaporins, and several other membrane proteins.

`Cryo-EM': electron cryomicroscopy, cryo electron microscopy or something else?

open access: yesIUCrJ, 2023
Structural biology continues to benefit from an expanding toolkit, which is helping to gain unprecedented insight into the assembly and organization of multi-protein machineries, enzyme mechanisms and ligand/inhibitor binding.
