Rational design of next-generation therapeutics can be facilitated by high-resolution structures of drug targets bound to small-molecule inhibitors. However, application of structure-based methods to macromolecules refractory to crystallization has been hampered by the often-limiting resolution and throughput of cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM). Here, we use high-resolution cryo-EM to determine structures of the CDK-activating kinase, a master regulator of cell growth and division, in its ...[more]

Cryo-EM reconstruction of the human 40S ribosomal subunit at 2.15 A resolution.

Project description:The chemical modification of ribosomal RNA and proteins is critical for ribosome assembly, for protein synthesis and may drive ribosome specialisation in development and disease. However, the inability to accurately visualise these modifications has limited mechanistic understanding of the role of these modifications in ribosome function. Here we report the 2.15 Å resolution cryo-EM reconstruction of the human 40S ribosomal subunit. We directly visualise post-transcriptional modifications within the 18S rRNA and four post-translational modifications of ribosomal proteins. Additionally, we interpret the solvation shells in the core regions of the 40S ribosomal subunit and reveal how potassium and magnesium ions establish both universally conserved and eukaryote-specific coordination to promote the stabilisation and folding of key ribosomal elements. This work provides unprecedented structural details for the human 40S ribosomal subunit that will serve as an important reference for unravelling the functional role of ribosomal RNA modifications.

Overcoming resolution attenuation during tilted cryo-EM data collection.

Project description:Structural biology efforts using cryogenic electron microscopy are frequently stifled by specimens adopting "preferred orientations" on grids, leading to anisotropic map resolution and impeding structure determination. Tilting the specimen stage during data collection is a generalizable solution but has historically led to substantial resolution attenuation. Here, we develop updated data collection and image processing workflows and demonstrate, using multiple specimens, that resolution attenuation is negligible or significantly reduced across tilt angles. Reconstructions with and without the stage tilted as high as 60° are virtually indistinguishable. These strategies allowed the reconstruction to 3 Å resolution of a bacterial RNA polymerase with preferred orientation, containing an unnatural nucleotide for studying novel base pair recognition. Furthermore, we present a quantitative framework that allows cryo-EM practitioners to define an optimal tilt angle during data acquisition. These results reinforce the utility of employing stage tilt for data collection and provide quantitative metrics to obtain isotropic maps.

2.9 A Resolution Cryo-EM 3D Reconstruction of Close-Packed Virus Particles.

Project description:Single-particle cryoelectron microscopy typically discards close-packed particle images as unusable data. Here, we report an image processing strategy and case study of obtaining near-atomic resolution 3D reconstructions from close-packed particles. Multiple independent de novo initial models were constructed to determine and cross-validate the particle parameters. The particles with consistent views were further refined including not only Euler angles and center positions but also defocus, astigmatism, beam tilt, and overall and anisotropic magnification. We demonstrated this strategy with a 2.9 Å resolution reconstruction of a 1.67 MDa virus-like particle of a circovirus, PCV2, recorded on 86 photographic films. The map resolution was further validated with a phase-randomization test and local resolution assessment, and the atomic model was validated with MolProbity and EMRinger. Close-packed virus particles were thus shown not only to be useful for high-resolution 3D reconstructions but also to allow data collection at significantly improved throughput for near-atomic resolution reconstructions.

Cryo-EM reconstruction of the chlororibosome to 3.2?A resolution within 24?h.

Project description:The introduction of direct detectors and the automation of data collection in cryo-EM have led to a surge in data, creating new opportunities for advancing computational processing. In particular, on-the-fly workflows that connect data collection with three-dimensional reconstruction would be valuable for more efficient use of cryo-EM and its application as a sample-screening tool. Here, accelerated on-the-fly analysis is reported with optimized organization of the data-processing tools, image acquisition and particle alignment that make it possible to reconstruct the three-dimensional density of the 70S chlororibosome to 3.2?Å resolution within 24?h of tissue harvesting. It is also shown that it is possible to achieve even faster processing at comparable quality by imposing some limits to data use, as illustrated by a 3.7?Å resolution map that was obtained in only 80?min on a desktop computer. These on-the-fly methods can be employed as an assessment of data quality from small samples and extended to high-throughput approaches.

Single particle cryo-EM reconstruction of 52 kDa streptavidin at 3.2 Angstrom resolution.

Project description:The fast development of single-particle cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM) has made it more feasible to obtain the 3D structure of well-behaved macromolecules with a molecular weight higher than 300 kDa at ~3 Å resolution. However, it remains a challenge to obtain the high-resolution structures of molecules smaller than 200 kDa using single-particle cryo-EM. In this work, we apply the Cs-corrector-VPP-coupled cryo-EM to study the 52 kDa streptavidin (SA) protein supported on a thin layer of graphene and embedded in vitreous ice. We are able to solve both the apo-SA and biotin-bound SA structures at near-atomic resolution using single-particle cryo-EM. We demonstrate that the method has the potential to determine the structures of molecules as small as 39 kDa.

Surface-Constrained 3D Reconstruction in Cryo-EM.

Project description:Random spherically-constrained (RSC) reconstruction is a new form of single particle reconstruction (SPR) using cryo-EM images of membrane proteins embedded in spherical lipid vesicles to generate a 3D protein structure. The method has many advantages over conventional SPR, including a more native environment for protein particles and an initial estimate of the particle's angular orientation. These advances allow us to determine structures of membrane proteins such as ion channels and derive more reliable structure estimates. We present an algorithm that relates conventional SPR to the RSC model, and generally, to projection images of particles embedded with an axis parallel to the local normal of a general 2D manifold. We illustrate the performance of this algorithm in the spherical system using synthetic data.

Sparseness and Smoothness Regularized Imaging for improving the resolution of Cryo-EM single-particle reconstruction.

Project description:In this paper, we present a refinement method for cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) single-particle reconstruction, termed as OPUS-SSRI (Sparseness and Smoothness Regularized Imaging). In OPUS-SSRI, spatially varying sparseness and smoothness priors are incorporated to improve the regularity of electron density map, and a type of real space penalty function is designed. Moreover, we define the back-projection step as a local kernel regression and propose a first-order method to solve the resulting optimization problem. On the seven cryo-EM datasets that we tested, the average improvement in resolution by OPUS-SSRI over that from RELION 3.0, the commonly used image-processing software for single-particle cryo-EM, was 0.64 Å, with the largest improvement being 1.25 Å. We expect OPUS-SSRI to be an invaluable tool to the broad field of cryo-EM single-particle analysis. The implementation of OPUS-SSRI can be found at https://github.com/alncat/cryoem.

4.4 A Resolution Cryo-EM structure of human mTOR Complex 1.

Project description:Mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) complex 1 (mTORC1) integrates signals from growth factors, cellular energy levels, stress and amino acids to control cell growth and proliferation through regulating translation, autophagy and metabolism. Here we determined the cryo-electron microscopy structure of human mTORC1 at 4.4 Å resolution. The mTORC1 comprises a dimer of heterotrimer (mTOR-Raptor-mLST8) mediated by the mTOR protein. The complex adopts a hollow rhomboid shape with 2-fold symmetry. Notably, mTORC1 shows intrinsic conformational dynamics. Within the complex, the conserved N-terminal caspase-like domain of Raptor faces toward the catalytic cavity of the kinase domain of mTOR. Raptor shows no caspase activity and therefore may bind to TOS motif for substrate recognition. Structural analysis indicates that FKBP12-Rapamycin may generate steric hindrance for substrate entry to the catalytic cavity of mTORC1. The structure provides a basis to understand the assembly of mTORC1 and a framework to characterize the regulatory mechanism of mTORC1 pathway.
