Cryo-electron microscopy has exposed the structure of a bacterial virus with unprecedented detail. This is the first structure of a virus able to infect Staphylococcus epidermidis, and high ...

Two key protein structures in the body are being visualized for the first time, thanks in part to the latest technology in ...

Cryo-electron microscopy by University of Alabama at Birmingham researchers has exposed the structure of a bacterial virus with unprecedented detail. This is the first structure of a virus able to ...

There are a lot of situations where a research group may turn to an electron microscope to get information about whatever system they might be studying. Assessing the structure of a virus or ...

Scientists have mapped the molecular structure of glutamate receptors in the cerebellum for the first time using cryo-electron microscopy.

However, no electron density was seen for an unusual 130 Å-long coiled-coil domain predicted by AlphaFold2. When that was replaced by a short linker, the researchers were able to determine a 3.0 Å ...

Electron microscopes use a beam of accelerated electrons to illuminate an object, providing much higher resolution than a light microscope. Cryo-electron microscopy adds the element of super-cold ...
