Description:
Electron cryomicroscopy (cryo-EM) is a powerful tool in structural biology for determining 3D structures of macromolecular complexes. In the previous decade, many technological advancements have been introduced to improve the methodology of single particle cryo-EM, and hence the resolution of its protein reconstructions. These advancements include developments in both software algorithms and microscope hardware. Despite all these developments, the resolution of single particle cryo-EM cannot surpass 1.5 Å, a barrier blocking direct visualization of atomic details of the protein structure. H...
