The Protein Data Bank (PDB) was established in 1971 as a repository for the three dimensional structures of biological macromolecules. Since then, more than 85000 …
We present a de novo model-building approach that combines predicted backbone conformations with side-chain fit to density to accurately assign sequence into density maps …
Large-scale and continuous conformational changes in the RNA self-folding process present significant challenges for structural studies, often requiring trade-offs between …
One limitation in electron cryo-microscopy (cryo-EM) is the inability to recover high- resolution signal from the image-recording media at the full-resolution limit of the …
The accuracy of the secondary structure element (SSE) identification from volumetric protein density maps is critical for de‐novo backbone structure derivation in electron cryo …

The surface of a material is rapidly covered with proteins once that material is placed in a biological environment. The structure and function of these bound proteins play a key role in …
There does not currently exist a standardized indicator of how well cryo-EM-derived models represent the density from which they were generated. We present a straightforward …
Viruses are extremely small infectious particles that are not visible in a light microscope, and are able to pass through fine porcelain filters. They exist in a huge variety of forms and infect …

The increasing power and popularity of cryo‐electron microscopy (cryo‐EM) in structural biology brought about the development of so‐called hybrid methods, which permit the …
