Also offered as gene-to-structure service.
Next-generation structure determination at near-atomic resolutionProtein structures from close-to-native conditionsOvercomes the need for crystallizationHighly suitable for larger proteins, complexes, and membrane proteinsData collection requires access to high-end electron microscopes
Offers a unique opportunity to visualize proteins directly in an unperturbed cellFor difficult-to-extract/purify proteins in their native conformation, for example for membrane protein-ligand interactionsFor the study of protein-protein interactions in a cellular context, for example for antibody-cell receptor interactionsFor the study drug delivery vectors such as viral vectors, polymers, or nanoparticles
Highest resolutions (up to 1 Å and beyond)Highly suitable for small, soluble proteinsDepends on crystallizability of the proteinData collection requires coordinated access to high-energy X-ray sources (synchrotrons)
