EMBL’s Scientists Modeled Molecular Complexes Inside Cells at Atomic Resolution Using Modern Software and Cryo-electron Tomography
To better comprehend the function of cells, scientists examine how different components of a cell – from single molecules to several organelles – work in synchronization. They studied individual molecules using classic structural biology tools, honing individual atoms. However, this method yields only static photographs of molecules in most circumstances. Instead, the scientists used cryo-electron…
