Electron Microscopy in the Context of Structural Systems Biology
As modern molecular biology moves from single molecules toward more complex multimolecular machines, the need for structural information about these assemblies grows. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy (see Chapter 5) and X-ray crystallography (see Chapter 4) are well-established approaches for obtaining atomic structures of biological macromolecules, but it has become increasingly c...
متن کاملElectron cryo-microscopy: the frozen frontier of structural biology.
When the electron microscope was conceived in the early 1950s, it was originally to be a tool mainly for atomic physicists who were interested in obtaining more detailed analyses of materials such as metals at an atomic resolution. Using a beam of electrons rather than a beam of light, it would be possible to gain the sufficient resolution needed to visualize the comparatively much larger nucle...
متن کاملModeling and Simulation of a Molecular Single-Electron Transistor
In this paper, to understand the concept of coupling, molecule density of states that coupled to the metal electrodes will be explained then, based on this concept, a weak and strong coupling for the molecules attached to the metal electrodes will be described. Capacitance model is used to explore the connection of addition energy with the Electron affinity and the ionization energy of the mole...
متن کاملStructural characterization of the TCR complex by electron microscopy.
Structural information on how the TCR transmits signals upon binding of its antigen peptide MHC molecule ligand is still lacking. The ectodomains of the TCRα/β, CD3εγ and CD3εδ dimers, as well as the transmembrane domain of CD3ζ, have been characterized by X-ray crystallography and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). However, no structural data have been obtained for the entire TCR complex. In th...
متن کاملSIGNATURE: a single-particle selection system for molecular electron microscopy.
SIGNATURE is a particle selection system for molecular electron microscopy. It applies a hierarchical screening procedure to identify molecular particles in EM micrographs. The user interface of the program provides versatile functions to facilitate image data visualization, particle annotation and particle quality inspection. The system design emphasizes both functionality and usability. This ...
