What is Cryo-Electron Microscopy? Cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) is a powerful technique used to determine the three-dimensional structure of biological macromolecules, such as proteins and ...

A) high-voltage cryo-electron microscope installed at the Osaka University. B) 250 nm diameter tokyovirus particle reconstructed at 7.7 Å resolution. The 2-fold, 3-fold, and 5-fold symmetry axes of ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — The cryo-electron microscope is a modern marvel of a machine that allows scientists to look at how proteins and viruses are built atom by atom. And it’s so important to the ...

Cryo-electron microscopy has electrified the field of experimental structural biology. Instead of painfully working out just the right conditions to force protein molecules into crystals, researchers ...

Electron microscopy has become a vital tool in structural biology, enabling researchers to visualize biological macromolecules at near-atomic resolution. Recent advances have transformed it from a low ...

In conjunction with the Structural Biology Core Facility, CEMIL enables practitioners of Cryo-EM within MSK laboratories to design innovative experiments and collect the highest quality Cryo-EM data ...

A part of the apoferritin protein (yellow) with a tyrosine side chain highlighted in grey. The amino acid tyrosine consists of several atoms that are individually recognizable in the structure (red ...

Electron microscopy is a powerful technique that provides high-resolution images by focusing a beam of electrons to reveal fine structural details in biological and material specimens. 2 Because ...

We’ll understand if you’re puzzled by the eerie image below. It’s a tiny piece of the Lassa virus, which can double a person over in pain, make their head swell and, in some cases, quickly result in ...

The Cryo-Electron Microscopy Center supports industry, academic, government, and non-profit research institutes, providing single-particle and microcrystal electron diffraction capabilities. We offer ...
