![]() | ![]() Title: Capabilities of the Falcon III detector for single-particle structure determination.

The direct detectors provide two modes of data acquisition; the counting mode in which single electrons are counted, and the integrating mode in which the signal that arises from the incident electrons is integrated. While counting mode leads to far higher detective quantum efficiency at all spatial frequencies, the integrating mode enables faster data acquisition at higher exposure rates. For optimal throughput at best possible resolution it is important to understand when the better performance in counting mode becomes essential for solving a structure and when the lower detective quantum efficiency in integrating mode can be compensated by increasing the number of particles in the data set. Here, we provide a case study of the Falcon III camera, which has counting mode capability at exposure rates of <0.9 e/Px² and integrating mode capability at exposure rates above 10 e/Px². We found that counting mode gives better resolution for medium sized complexes such as the β-galactosidase (465 kDa) (2.2 Å, 97% of Nyquist vs. 2.4 Å, 89% of Nyquist) with data sets of similar size. However, for larger particles such as Hepatitis B virus capsid like particles (4.8 MDa) we did not find any resolution gain in counting mode. | ||||||

Grids were glow discharged in air at a pressure of 2.2x10-2 Torr for 2 min at medium power with a Harrick Plasma cleaner (PDC-002). Subsequently, 3-4 ul of the sample was pipetted onto the glow discharged grids and plunge frozen in liquid Ethane with a Vitrobot IV (FEI). The sample chamber of the Vitrobot was maintained at 4C and 100% humidity. Wait time between sample application and blotting was 45 s, the drain time 0 s, the blot time 3 s and the blot force 0. |

An initial 3D model of these segments was determined using the relion helix option with a cylinder as the starting reference. The aligned helical segments after 3D refinement were subjected to 2D classification without alignment. Three of the 2D class averages were selected as templates for automatic picking of the TMV segments in relion. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
