First 3.2 Å β-galactosidase structure solved by cryo-EM
Bartesaghi, A.; Matthies, D.; Banerjee, S.; Merk, A.; Subramaniam, S.
Structure of Escherichia coli β-galactosidase (∼465 kDa) at 3.2 Å resolution solved using the GIF Quantum LS energy filter that includes a K2 Summit camera. The first atomic model derived using single-particle cryo-EM analysis closely matches the 1.7 Å crystal structure with a global rmsd of ∼0.66 Å.

High resolution image of Au nanoparticles, drift correction off (image 1)
Image of gold (Au) nanoparticles shows the impact sample motion may have on an image when drift correction is turned off. See High-resolution image of Au nanoparticles, drift correction on (image 2 and 3) in the OneView media library to see how OneView minimizes the impact of sample motion when drift correction is turned on.
TEM magnification: 255kx; electron energy: 200 keV; exposure time: 2.56 s; drift correction: off

4/6 Multilayer step—Last 0.05 s
- Step height n/m=4/6 – 4 planes in lower grain meet 6 planes in the upper grain
- Preserved ABAB…stacking sequence over the step interface
- Buried step parallel to the surface forms during step migration (b-d)
- “Shadow” of the step most likely due to remanence at the surface (e)
