Cryo-FIB-enabled 3D imaging of biological specimens.

Applied microscopy 2026

Abstract Cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET) has become a key technique for observing the three-dimensional structures of biomolecular complexes and organelles in cellular and tissue environments in...

Biophysical Sensing Tools in Drug Discovery: Integrating Kinetics, Thermodynamics, Cellular Target Engagement and Structure.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland) 2026

Biophysical sensing technologies have become central to modern drug discovery because they enable direct, quantitative characterization of ligand-target interactions. In contrast to conventional biochemical and...

Advances in automation for cryo-electron tomography data collection.

Current opinion in structural biology 2025

Cryo-electron microscopy has become the preferred method for determining structures of macromolecular complexes both in isolation, using single particle analysis, and in their cellular contexts,...

Inheritance of four-membrane-bound structures in the “apicoplast-minus” Plasmodium falciparum.

mSphere 2026

ABSTRACT Most apicomplexan parasites contain a plastid-derived organelle called the apicoplast, which originated through secondary endosymbiosis. As a result of this evolutionary trajectory, the non-photosynthetic...

TomoScore: A Neural Network Approach for Quality Assessment of Cellular cryo-ET.

bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology 2024

Abstract Electron cryo-tomography (cryoET) is a powerful imaging tool that allows three-dimensional visualization of subcellular and molecular architecture without chemical fixation. Tomogram quality varies widely,...

TomoScore: A Neural Network Approach for Quality Assessment of Cellular cryo-ET.

Research square 2025

Abstract Electron cryo-tomography (cryo-ET) is a powerful imaging tool that allows three-dimensional visualization of subcellular and molecular architecture without chemical fixation. Tomogram quality varies widely,...

Breaking Barriers: Transitioning from X-ray Crystallography to Cryo-EM for Structural Studies of ATAD2B.

bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology 2025

Abstract Cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) has transformed structural biology by enabling near-atomic resolution of large macromolecular complexes without the need for crystallization. Here, we describe our...

Cryo-electron tomography reveals paracellular claudin-15 pores at the tight junction.

bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology 2026

ABSTRACT Tight junctions (TJs) are composed of anastomosing strands between epithelial cells. Members of the claudin family of proteins reside within TJ strands and either...

Digging Deep into Alzheimer Disease: How Electron Microscopy Helps Elucidating Its Pathogenesis.

Cellular and molecular neurobiology 2026

Abstract Alzheimer disease (AD), first described by Alzheimer and Perusini in the early twentieth century, is a devastating neurodegenerative disorder without a definitive cure. Unraveling...
