`Atomic resolution': a badly abused term in structural biology.

The term ‘atomic resolution’ was defined a long time ago and it is generally accepted to correspond to an electron-density map (or a map calculated using another type of data, for example nuclear density) in which individual atoms can be distinguished. It is usually assumed to correspond to a resolution dmin of 1.2 Å of the diffraction data, which is also known as the ‘Sheldrick criterion’ (She...

Low-resolution density maps from atomic models: how stepping "back" can be a step "forward".

Atomic-resolution structures have had a tremendous impact on modern biological science. Much useful information also has been gleaned by merging and correlating atomic-resolution structural details with lower-resolution (15-40 A), three-dimensional (3D) reconstructions computed from images recorded with cryo-transmission electron microscopy (cryoTEM) procedures. One way to merge these structure...

Self-organizing neural networks bridge the biomolecular resolution gap.

Topology-representing neural networks are employed to generate pseudo-atomic structures of large-scale protein assemblies by combining high-resolution data with volumetric data at lower resolution. As an application example, actin monomers and structural subdomains are located in a three-dimensional (3D) image reconstruction from electron micrographs. To test the reliability of the method, the ...

Structural biology of cellular machines.

Multi-component macromolecular machines contribute to all essential biological processes, from cell motility and signal transduction to information storage and processing. Structural analysis of assemblies at atomic resolution is emerging as the field of structural cell biology. Several recent studies, including those focused on the ribosome, the acrosomal bundle and bacterial flagella, have de...
