Journal ArticleDOI

High-resolution noise substitution to measure overfitting and validate resolution in 3D structure determination by single particle electron cryomicroscopy.

TL;DR: Applying this procedure to cryoEM images of beta-galactosidase shows how overfitting varies greatly depending on the procedure, but in the best case shows no overfitting and a resolution of ~6 Å.
Journal ArticleDOI

How cryo-EM is revolutionizing structural biology

TL;DR: The recent advances in electron detection and image processing are reviewed and the exciting new opportunities that they offer to structural biology research are illustrated.
Journal ArticleDOI

A comprehensive model for familial breast cancer incorporating BRCA1, BRCA2 and other genes

TL;DR: The findings suggest that several common, low penetrance genes with multiplicative effects on risk may account for the residual non-BRCA1/2 familial aggregation of breast cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Single-particle cryo-EM at atomic resolution.

TL;DR: A new electron source, energy filter and camera are used to obtain a 1.7 Å resolution cryo-EM reconstruction for a human membrane protein, the β3 GABA A receptor homopentamer, allowing a detailed understanding of small-molecule coordination, visualization of solvent molecules and alternative conformations for multiple amino acids, and unambiguous building of ordered acidic side chains and glycans.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ribosome structures to near-atomic resolution from thirty thousand cryo-EM particles

TL;DR: It is shown that ribosome reconstructions with unprecedented resolutions may be calculated from almost two orders of magnitude fewer particles than used previously, which may expand the scope of high-resolution cryo-EM to a broad range of biological specimens.
