Citation | Journal: Structure / Year: 2021Title: Improving particle quality in cryo-EM analysis using a PEGylation method. Authors: Zhikuan Zhang / Hideki Shigematsu / Toshiyuki Shimizu / Umeharu Ohto / ![]() Abstract: Cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) is widely used for structural biology studies and has been developed extensively in recent years. However, its sample vitrification process is a major limitation ...Cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) is widely used for structural biology studies and has been developed extensively in recent years. However, its sample vitrification process is a major limitation because it causes severe particle aggregation and/or denaturation. This effect is thought to occur because particles tend to stick to the "deadly" air-water interface during vitrification. Here, we report a method for PEGylation of proteins that can efficiently protect particles against such problems during vitrification. This method alleviates the laborious process of fine-tuning the vitrification conditions, allowing for analysis of samples that would otherwise be discarded. | |||||||||
