Researchers at Purdue University have created an electron microscopy technique termed “cryoAPEX” that accurately tracks membrane proteins in a well-preserved cell. The new method is a hybrid of two ...

However, thanks to the state-of-the-art cryo-electron microscopes, the researchers have now been able to gain new insights into the interaction between Vipp1 and the cell membrane.

The cell membrane is a flexible protective layer that ... have uncovered the 3D structure of the membrane proteins myoferlin and dysferlin using high-resolution cryo-electron microscopy. ...

Cell membranes play a crucial role in maintaining the integrity and functionality of cells. However, the mechanisms by which they perform these roles are not yet fully understood. Scientists from ...

An important goal of membrane biology is to define the local heterogeneity of membrane lipid composition. Here we describe a quantitative electron microscopic method that enables the localization ...

In a recent study posted to the bioRxiv* pre-print server, researchers illustrated the cryo-electron microscopic (cryo-EM) structure of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2 ...

Here we report the three-dimensional structure of a poliovirus–receptor–membrane complex solved by cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) at a resolution of 32 Å. Methods were developed to ...
