Rapid structural analysis of bacterial ribosomes in situ by Barrett M. Powell, Tyler S. Brant, Joseph H. Davis, Shyamal Mosalaganti

“…In contrast, analogous structural analysis in cells via cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET) remains challenging due to critical technical bottlenecks, including low-throughput sample preparation and imaging, and laborious data processing methods. Here, we describe a rapid in situ cryo-ET sample preparation and data analysis workflow that results in the routine determination of sub-nm resolution ribosomal structures. …”
