Structure of the CLC-1 chloride channel from Homo sapiens

open access: yeseLife, 2018
CLC channels mediate passive Cl− conduction, while CLC transporters mediate active Cl− transport coupled to H+ transport in the opposite direction. The distinction between CLC-0/1/2 channels and CLC transporters seems undetectable by amino acid sequence.

Nanoscale characterization of the biomolecular corona by cryo-electron microscopy, cryo-electron tomography, and image simulation

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Understanding the biomolecular corona is of key importance to nanomedicine. Here, the authors report on cryo-electron and tomographic imaging of the corona formed on model nanoparticles and the 3D reconstruction of the corona to study the distribution ...

Temporal dynamics of charge buildup in cryo-electron microscopy

open access: yesJournal of Structural Biology: X, 2023
It is well known that insulating samples can accumulate electric charges from exposure to an electron beam. How the accumulation of charge affects imaging parameters and sample stability in transmission electron microscopy is poorly understood.

Bionanomaterials from plant viruses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Plant virus capsids have emerged as useful biotemplates for material synthesis. All plant virus capsids are assembled with high-precision, three-dimensional structures providing nanoscale architectures that are highly monodisperse, can be produced in ...

Cryoelectron Microscopy of Vitrified Specimens [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
Water is the most abundant component of biological material, but it is systematically excluded from conventional electron microscopy. This is because water evaporates rapidly under the vacuum conditions of an electron microscope. Cryoelectron microscopy has long been seen as a possible avenue to overcome this limitation, but until recently the direct ...

Cryoelectron Microscopy of Mouse Mammary Tumor Virus [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Virology, 2004
ABSTRACT Cryoelectron microscopy of Mouse mammary tumor virus , a Betaretrovirus , provided information about glycoprotein structure and core formation. The virions showed the broad range of diameters typical of retroviruses.

Cryo-EM Structures of Eastern Equine Encephalitis Virus Reveal Mechanisms of Virus Disassembly and Antibody Neutralization

open access: yesCell Reports, 2018
Summary: Alphaviruses are enveloped pathogens that cause arthritis and encephalitis. Here, we report a 4.4-Å cryoelectron microscopy (cryo-EM) structure of eastern equine encephalitis virus (EEEV), an alphavirus that causes fatal encephalitis in humans ...
