CiCLE workshop: sample evaluation for cryo-EM on January 6 or January 7, 2020
CiCLE workshop: sample evaluation for cryo-EM
Outline:For obtaining high-resolution structures by single particle cryo-EM suitable sample evaluation and sample preparation is essential. An important aspect of sample evaluation is the effective use of negative stain EM of the purified target protein. In this workshop lectures and hands-on practice workshops will provide an introduction to the use of negative stain EM observation of protein sample by conventional transmission electron microscopy (TEM) for the use in cryo-EM based structure determination.
