The Cryo-EM structure of human CD163 bound to haptoglobin …
Dec 30, 2024 · CD163, a macrophage-specific receptor, plays a critical role in scavenging hemoglobin released during hemolysis, protecting against oxidative effects of heme iron. In the …
Cryo-EM structure of haemoglobin at 3.2 Å determined with the …
Jun 30, 2017 · Here, we report the use of a Volta phase plate in determining the structure of human haemoglobin (64 kDa) at 3.2 Å. Our results demonstrate that this method can be …
The unique allosteric property of crocodilian haemoglobin
Aug 2, 2024 · Native crocodilian Hbs have also proved refractory to crystallisation 17, but improvements in cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) hardware and software now make it …
Revisiting the Structure of Hemoglobin and Myoglobin with Cryo …
Aug 18, 2017 · In recent years, cryo-electron microscopy has emerged as a viable alternative and indeed in many cases the preferred approach. It is capable of studying proteins that span a …
High-Resolution Cryo-EM Maps and Models: A Crystallographer's ...
We provide data-driven argument for defining and enforcing cryo-EM deposition standards. The appearance of ten high-resolution cryoelectron microscopy (cryo-EM) maps of proteins, …
Sixty years ago, the first protein structure of myoglobin was determined by John Kendrew and his colleagues; hemoglobin followed shortly thereafter. For quite some time, it seemed that only X …
What Could Go Wrong? A Practical Guide To Single-Particle Cryo-EM…
Single-particle cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) is becoming a go-to technique in structural biology. This is due to 1) the broad molecular weight range available for study (50kDa - 16,000 …
X-rays in the Cryo-EM Era: Structural Biology’s Dynamic Future
Cryo-EM is now able to probe proteins as small as hemoglobin (64 kDa), while avoiding the crystallization bottleneck entirely. The remarkable success of cryo-EM has called into question …
