TLDR
A user-friendly, computationally-efficient 3D-CTF correction tool, NovaCTF, that is compatible with standard tomogram reconstruction workflows in IMOD is presented and it is found that high-resolution structures can be obtained with much smaller subtomogram averaging datasets than are required using 2D- CTF.

Cone-shaped HIV-1 capsids are transported through intact nuclear pores

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the diameter of the NPC in cellulo is sufficient for the import of apparently intact, coneshaped capsids and detected disrupted and empty capsid fragments, indicating that uncoating of the replication complex occurs by breaking the capsid open, and not by disassembly into individual subunits.
