We have developed new open-source software called cisTEM (computational imaging system for transmission electron microscopy) for the processing of data for high-resolution electron cryo-microscopy and single-particle averaging. cisTEM features a graphical user interface that is used to submit jobs, monitor their progress, and display results. It implements a full processing pipeline including movie processing, image defocus determination, automatic particle picking, 2D classificati ...[more]

Processing apoferritin with the Appion pipeline.

Project description:The 3DEM map challenge provided an opportunity to test different algorithms and workflows for processing single particle cryo-EM data. We were interested in testing whether we could use the standard Appion workflow with minimal manual intervention to achieve similar or better resolution than other challengers. Another question we were interested in testing was what the influence of particle sorting and elimination would be on the resolution and quality of 3D reconstructions. Since apoferritin is historically a challenging particle for single particle reconstruction and the authors of the original map challenge data used only a fraction of the particles present in the dataset, we focused on the apoferritin dataset for our entry. We submitted a 3.7?Å map from 25,844 particles and a 3.6?Å map from 53,334 particles and after assessment were among the best of the apoferritin maps that were submitted. Here we present the details of our reconstruction strategy and compare our strategy to that of another high-scoring apoferritin map. Altogether, our results suggest that for a relatively conformationally homogeneous particle like apoferritin, including as many particles as possible after elimination of junk leads to the highest resolution, and the choice of parameters for custom mask creation can lead to subtle but significant changes in the resolution of 3D reconstructions.

Glioma targeting peptide modified apoferritin nanocage.

Project description:Therapeutic outcome for the treatment of glioma was often limited due to the non-targeted nature of drugs and the physiological barriers, including the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and the blood-brain tumor barrier (BBTB). An ideal glioma-targeted delivery system must be sufficiently potent to cross the BBB and BBTB and then target glioma cells with adequate optimized physiochemical properties and biocompatibility. However, it is an enormous challenge to the researchers to engineer the above-mentioned features into a single nanocarrier particle. New frontiers in nanomedicine are advancing the research of new biomaterials. In this study, we demonstrate a strategy for glioma targeting by encapsulating vincristine sulfate (VCR) into a naturally available apoferritin nanocage-based drug delivery system with the modification of GKRK peptide ligand (GKRK-APO). Apoferritin (APO), an endogenous nanosize spherical protein, can specifically bind to brain endothelial cells and glioma cells via interacting with the transferrin receptor 1 (TfR1). GKRK is a peptide ligand of heparan sulfate proteoglycan (HSPG) over-expressed on angiogenesis and glioma, presenting excellent glioma-homing property. By combining the dual-targeting delivery effect of GKRK peptide and parent APO, GKRK-APO displayed higher glioma localization than that of parent APO. After loading with VCR, GKRK-APO showed the most favorable antiglioma effect in vitro and in vivo. These results demonstrated that GKRK-APO is an important potential drug delivery system for glioma-targeted therapy.
