While the overall conformation of this structure is quite consistent with the published X-ray data, a measurable shift in the positions of three alpha helices in the intermediate domain is observed, not consistent with any of the 7 monomeric structures in the Protein Data Bank model (1OEL). In addition, there is evidence for slight rearrangement or flexibility in parts of the apical domain. The 6 A resolution cryo-EM GroEL structure clearly demonstrates the veracity and expanding scope of cryo-EM and the single particle reconstruction technique for macromolecular machines. |
