Cryo-electron microscopy has reached resolution on par with X-ray crystallography
Compared to the more established X-ray crystallography, cryo-electron microscopy images were of lower resolution until a recent breakthrough that brought forth a “resolution revolution”. Specifically, advances in instrument setup, optics, and reconstruction software helped ushered in a new era in cryo-electron microscopy where resolution of images could reach 1.25 Angstrom. This is similar to that … More Cryo-electron microscopy has reached resolution on par with X-ray crystallography
