Title: In situ structure of bacterial 50S ribosomes at 3.0 Å resolution from vitreous sections.

Abstract: In situ high-resolution structure determination is limited to samples thin enough to be penetrated by the electron beam during imaging. Sample thinning involves focused ion or plasma beam milling of ...In situ high-resolution structure determination is limited to samples thin enough to be penetrated by the electron beam during imaging. Sample thinning involves focused ion or plasma beam milling of specimens to produce lamellae with thicknesses as low as 100-150 nm. However, surface damage caused by the milling process can extend 30-60 nm deep, restricting the usable lamella thickness. This imposes limitations on single-particle analysis of macromolecular complexes due to elevated structural noise, which cannot be avoided in situ because of the dense cellular environment. Alternative methods capable of producing thinner samples are needed to reduce background. Here, we demonstrate that high-resolution structures at side-chain level, free of orientation bias, can be obtained from vitreous sections prepared by cryo-ultramicrotomy, both in vitro and in situ. We optimized the method to produce sections as thin as ~40 nm, free from significant surface damage. Using this approach, we determined the structure of the 50S ribosomal subunit in vitro at 2.8 Å and in situ at 3 Å from bacterial cells. These results lay the foundation for future in situ studies of smaller complexes using CEMOVIS, as well as for methodological advances aimed at achieving compression-free sectioning.

Jan 31, 2019. EMDB accession codes are about to change! (news from PDBe EMDB page)

EMDB accession codes are about to change! (news from PDBe EMDB page)

  • The allocation of 4 digits for EMDB accession codes will soon come to an end. Whilst these codes will remain in use, new EMDB accession codes will include an additional digit and will expand incrementally as the available range of codes is exhausted. The current 4-digit format prefixed with “EMD-” (i.e. EMD-XXXX) will advance to a 5-digit format (i.e. EMD-XXXXX), and so on. It is currently estimated that the 4-digit codes will be depleted around Spring 2019, at which point the 5-digit format will come into force.
  • The EM Navigator/Yorodumi systems omit the EMD- prefix.
