Radiation dose reduction and image enhancement in biological imaging through equally-sloped tomography [PDF]
Electron tomography is currently the highest resolution imaging modality available to study the 3D structures of pleomorphic macromolecular assemblies, viruses, organelles and cells. Unfortunately, the resolution is currently limited to 3–5 nm by several

Steroid Recognition in Adhesion GPCRs: A Structural and Pharmacological Perspective
ABSTRACT Emerging evidence suggests steroids may act as generalizable ligands for adhesion GPCRs, a receptor class with considerable pharmacological potential. While most studies have focused on the ADGR‘G' subfamily, recent cryo‐EM structures of the androgens 5α‐dihydrotestosterone (5α‐DHT) and methenolone bound to ADGRD1 revealed a putative steroid ...

Using cryo-electron microscopy maps for X-ray structure determination
X-ray crystallography and cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) are complementary techniques for structure determination. Crystallography usually reveals more detailed information, while cryo-EM is an extremely useful technique for studying large-sized ...

Membrane-associated proteins in giardia lamblia [PDF]
The manner in which membrane-associated proteins interact with the membrane defines their subcellular fate and function. This interaction relies on the characteristics of the proteins, their journey after synthesis, and their interaction with other ...

Precise Capture of Membrane Proteins Using DNA‐Origami‐Constrained Nanodiscs
A designed DNA origami structure ensures manipulates and inserts an individual membrane protein in a single, captured nanodisc. Membrane proteins play a key role as cellular gatekeepers, regulating the flow of information and material across lipid membranes.

Cryo-electron Microscopy Analysis of Structurally Heterogeneous Macromolecular Complexes
Cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) has for a long time been a technique of choice for determining structure of large and flexible macromolecular complexes that were difficult to study by other experimental techniques such as X-ray crystallography or ...

Structures of pentatricopeptide repeat proteins
A number of crystal, cryo‐EM and solution structures of pentatricopeptide repeat proteins have been solved, revealing details of how they interact with single‐stranded RNA and other proteins, as well as their conformational repertoire.Pentatricopeptide repeat (PPR) proteins constitute the largest family of RNA‐binding proteins in land plants, playing ...
