A Bayesian adaptive basis algorithm for single particle reconstruction.

ABSTRACT: Traditional single particle reconstruction methods use either the Fourier or the delta function basis to represent the particle density map. This paper proposes a more flexible algorithm that adaptively chooses the basis based on the data. Because the basis adapts to the data, the reconstruction resolution and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is improved compared to a reconstruction with a fixed basis. Moreover, the algorithm automatically masks the particle, thereby separating it from the background. This eliminates the need for ad hoc filtering or masking in the refinement loop. The algorithm is formulated in a Bayesian maximum-a-posteriori framework and uses an efficient optimization algorithm for the maximization. Evaluations using simulated and actual cryogenic electron microscopy data show resolution and SNR improvements as well as the effective masking of particle from background.

Particle segmentation algorithm for flexible single particle reconstruction.

Project description:As single particle cryo-electron microscopy has evolved to a new era of atomic resolution, sample heterogeneity still imposes a major limit to the resolution of many macromolecular complexes, especially those with continuous conformational flexibility. Here, we describe a particle segmentation algorithm towards solving structures of molecules composed of several parts that are relatively flexible with each other. In this algorithm, the different parts of a target molecule are segmented from raw images according to their alignment information obtained from a preliminary 3D reconstruction and are subjected to single particle processing in an iterative manner. This algorithm was tested on both simulated and experimental data and showed improvement of 3D reconstruction resolution of each segmented part of the molecule than that of the entire molecule.

A 2D image 3D reconstruction function adaptive denoising algorithm.

Project description:To address the issue of image denoising algorithms blurring image details during the denoising process, we propose an adaptive denoising algorithm for the 3D reconstruction of 2D images. This algorithm takes into account the inherent visual characteristics of human eyes and divides the image into regions based on the entropy value of each region. The background region is subject to threshold denoising, while the target region undergoes processing using an adversarial generative network. This network effectively handles 2D target images with noise and generates a 3D model of the target. The proposed algorithm aims to enhance the noise immunity of 2D images during the 3D reconstruction process and ensure that the constructed 3D target model better preserves the original image's detailed information. Through experimental testing on 2D images and real pedestrian videos contaminated with noise, our algorithm demonstrates stable preservation of image details. The reconstruction effect is evaluated in terms of noise reduction and the fidelity of the 3D model to the original target. The results show an average noise reduction exceeding 95% while effectively retaining most of the target's feature information in the original image. In summary, our proposed adaptive denoising algorithm improves the 3D reconstruction process by preserving image details that are often compromised by conventional denoising techniques. This has significant implications for enhancing image quality and maintaining target information fidelity in 3D models, providing a promising approach for addressing the challenges associated with noise reduction in 2D images during 3D reconstruction.

Multicolor single-particle reconstruction of protein complexes.

Project description:Single-particle reconstruction (SPR) from electron microscopy (EM) images is widely used in structural biology, but it lacks direct information on protein identity. To address this limitation, we developed a computational and analytical framework that reconstructs and coaligns multiple proteins from 2D super-resolution fluorescence images. To demonstrate our method, we generated multicolor 3D reconstructions of several proteins within the human centriole, which revealed their relative locations, dimensions and orientations.

Volumetric restrictions in single particle 3DEM reconstruction.

Project description:3D electron microsscopy aims at the reconstruction of density volumes corresponding to the electrostatic potential distribution of macro-molecules. There are many factors limiting the resolution achievable when this technique is applied to biological macromolecules: microscope imperfections, molecule flexibility, lack of projections from certain directions, unknown angular distribution, noise, etc. In this communication we explore the quality gain in the reconstruction by including a priori knowledge such as particle symmetry, occupied volume, known surface relief, density nonnegativity and similarity to a known volume in order to improve the quality of the reconstruction. If the reconstruction is represented as a series expansion, such constraints can be expressed by set of equations that the expansion coefficients must satisfy. In this work, these equation sets are specified and combined in a novel way with the ART + blobs reconstruction algorithm. The effect of each one on the reconstruction of a realistic phantom is explored. Finally, the application of these restrictions to 3D reconstructions from experimental data are studied.

Structural basis of the iron storage function of frataxin from single-particle reconstruction of the iron-loaded oligomer.

Project description:The mitochondrial protein frataxin plays a central role in mitochondrial iron homeostasis, and frataxin deficiency is responsible for Friedreich ataxia, a neurodegenerative and cardiac disease that affects 1 in 40000 children. Here we present a single-particle reconstruction from cryoelectron microscopic images of iron-loaded 24-subunit oligomeric frataxin particles at 13 and 17 A resolution. Computer-aided classification of particle images showed heterogeneity in particle size, which was hypothesized to result from gradual accumulation of iron within the core structure. Thus, two reconstructions were created from two classes of particles with iron cores of different sizes. The reconstructions show the iron core of frataxin for the first time. Compared to the previous reconstruction of iron-free particles from negatively stained images, the higher resolution of the present reconstruction allowed a more reliable analysis of the overall three-dimensional structure of the 24-meric assembly. This was done after docking the X-ray structure of the frataxin trimer into the EM reconstruction. The structure revealed a close proximity of the suggested ferroxidation sites of different monomers to the site proposed to serve in iron nucleation and mineralization. The model also assigns a new role to the N-terminal helix of frataxin in controlling the channel at the 4-fold axis of the 24-subunit oligomer. The reconstructions show that, together with some common features, frataxin has several unique features which distinguish it from ferritin. These include the overall organization of the oligomers, the way they are stabilized, and the mechanisms of iron core nucleation.

Spherical deconvolution improves quality of single particle reconstruction.

Project description:One single-particle reconstruction technique is the reconstruction of macromolecules from projection images of randomly oriented particles (SPRR). In SPRR the reliability and consequent interpretation of the final reconstruction is affected by errors arising from incorrect assignment of projection angles to individual particles. In order to improve the resolution of SPRR we studied the influence of imperfect assignment on 3D blurring. We find that this blurring can be described as a Point Spread Function (PSF) that depends on the distance from geometrical center of the reconstructed volume and that blurring is higher at the periphery. This particular PSF can be described by an almost pure tangential angular function with a negligible radial component. We have developed a reliable algorithm for spherical deconvolution of the 3D reconstruction. This spherical deconvolution operation was tested on reconstructions of GroEL and mitochondrial ribosomes. We show that spherical deconvolution improves the quality of SPRR by reducing blurring and enhancing high frequency components, particularly near the periphery of the reconstruction.

Bayesian adaptive selection of basis functions for functional data representation.

Project description:Considering the context of functional data analysis, we developed and applied a new Bayesian approach via the Gibbs sampler to select basis functions for a finite representation of functional data. The proposed methodology uses Bernoulli latent variables to assign zero to some of the basis function coefficients with a positive probability. This procedure allows for an adaptive basis selection since it can determine the number of bases and which ones should be selected to represent functional data. Moreover, the proposed procedure measures the uncertainty of the selection process and can be applied to multiple curves simultaneously. The methodology developed can deal with observed curves that may differ due to experimental error and random individual differences between subjects, which one can observe in a real dataset application involving daily numbers of COVID-19 cases in Brazil. Simulation studies show the main properties of the proposed method, such as its accuracy in estimating the coefficients and the strength of the procedure to find the true set of basis functions. Despite having been developed in the context of functional data analysis, we also compared the proposed model via simulation with the well-established LASSO and Bayesian LASSO, which are methods developed for non-functional data.

Improved image reconstruction of <sup>89</sup>Zr-immunoPET studies using a Bayesian penalized likelihood reconstruction algorithm.

Project description:PurposeThe aim of this study was to evaluate the use of a Bayesian penalized likelihood reconstruction algorithm (Q.Clear) for 89Zr-immunoPET image reconstruction and its potential to improve image quality and reduce the administered activity of 89Zr-immunoPET tracers.MethodsEight 89Zr-immunoPET whole-body PET/CT scans from three 89Zr-immunoPET clinical trials were selected for analysis. On average, patients were imaged 6.3 days (range 5.0-8.0 days) after administration of 69 MBq (range 65-76 MBq) of [89Zr]Zr-DFO-daratumumab, [89Zr]Zr-DFO-pertuzumab, or [89Zr]Zr-DFO-trastuzumab. List-mode PET data was retrospectively reconstructed using Q.Clear with incremental β-values from 150 to 7200, as well as standard ordered-subset expectation maximization (OSEM) reconstruction (2-iterations, 16-subsets, a 6.4-mm Gaussian transaxial filter, "heavy" z-axis filtering and all manufacturers' corrections active). Reduced activities were simulated by discarding 50% and 75% of original counts in each list mode stream. All reconstructed PET images were scored for image quality and lesion detectability using a 5-point scale. SUVmax for normal liver and sites of disease and liver signal-to-noise ratio were measured.ResultsQ.Clear reconstructions with β = 3600 provided the highest scores for image quality. Images reconstructed with β-values of 3600 or 5200 using only 50% or 25% of the original counts provided comparable or better image quality scores than standard OSEM reconstruction images using 100% of counts.ConclusionThe Bayesian penalized likelihood reconstruction algorithm Q.Clear improved the quality of 89Zr-immunoPET images. This could be used in future studies to improve image quality and/or decrease the administered activity of 89Zr-immunoPET tracers.

Single particle maximum likelihood reconstruction from superresolution microscopy images.

Project description:Point localization superresolution microscopy enables fluorescently tagged molecules to be imaged beyond the optical diffraction limit, reaching single molecule localization precisions down to a few nanometers. For small objects whose sizes are few times this precision, localization uncertainty prevents the straightforward extraction of a structural model from the reconstructed images. We demonstrate in the present work that this limitation can be overcome at the single particle level, requiring no particle averaging, by using a maximum likelihood reconstruction (MLR) method perfectly suited to the stochastic nature of such superresolution imaging. We validate this method by extracting structural information from both simulated and experimental PALM data of immature virus-like particles of the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV-1). MLR allows us to measure the radii of individual viruses with precision of a few nanometers and confirms the incomplete closure of the viral protein lattice. The quantitative results of our analysis are consistent with previous cryoelectron microscopy characterizations. Our study establishes the framework for a method that can be broadly applied to PALM data to determine the structural parameters for an existing structural model, and is particularly well suited to heterogeneous features due to its single particle implementation.
