Designer nanoscale DNA assemblies programmed from the top down.

TL;DR: This work presents a general solution to this problem that offers the ability for nonspecialists to design and synthesize nearly arbitrary DNA-based nanoparticles using only a simple surface-based representation of target 3D geometry to automatically generate the ssDNA needed to synthesize the object.

Designer nanoscale DNA assemblies programmed from the top down

TL;DR: In this article, a top-down strategy was proposed to design nearly arbitrary DNA architectures autonomously based only on target shape, represented as closed surfaces rendered as polyhedral networks of parallel DNA duplexes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Measurement of atom resolvability in cryo-EM maps with Q -scores

TL;DR: Q -score analysis of multiple cryo-EM maps of the same proteins derived from different laboratories confirms the reproducibility of structural features from side chains down to water and ion atoms, and can be used at the atom, residue or macromolecule scale.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Single Immunization with Spike-Functionalized Ferritin Vaccines Elicits Neutralizing Antibody Responses against SARS-CoV-2 in Mice

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors designed subunit vaccine candidates using selfassembling ferritin nanoparticles displaying one of two multimerized SARS-CoV-2 spikes: full-length ectodomain (S-Fer) or a C-terminal 70 amino acid deletion (SΔC-Fer).
Journal ArticleDOI

Accelerated cryo-EM-guided determination of three-dimensional RNA-only structures

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that cryo-electron microscopy can routinely resolve maps of RNA-only systems and that these maps enable subnanometer-resolution coordinate estimation when complemented with multidimensional chemical mapping and Rosetta DRRAFTER computational modeling.
