Sub-2 Å Ewald curvature corrected structure of an AAV2 capsid variant

Single-particle cryo-EM is a powerful method for macromolecular structure determination. Here the authors demonstrate that Ewald sphere curvature correction, sub-Angstrom pixilation and per-particle CTF refinement can improve map quality and resolution and present the 1.86 Å cryo-EM structure of an...

description Single-particle cryo-EM is a powerful method for macromolecular structure determination. Here the authors demonstrate that Ewald sphere curvature correction, sub-Angstrom pixilation and per-particle CTF refinement can improve map quality and resolution and present the 1.86 Å cryo-EM structure of an adeno-associated virus serotype 2 variant.
