3D structure determination of native mammalian cells using cryo-FIB and cryo-electron tomography.

Project description:Cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET) has enabled high resolution three-dimensional(3D) structural analysis of virus and host cell interactions and many cell signaling events; these studies, however, have largely been limited to very thin, peripheral regions of eukaryotic cells or to small prokaryotic cells. Recent efforts to make thin, vitreous sections using cryo-ultramicrotomy have been successful, however,this method is technically very challenging and with many artifacts. Here, we report a simple and robust method for creating in situ, frozen-hydrated cell lamellas using a focused ion beam at cryogenic temperature (cryo-FIB), allowing access to any interior cellular regions of interest. We demonstrate the utility of cryo-FIB with high resolution 3D cellular structures from both bacterial cells and large mammalian cells. The method will not only facilitate high-throughput 3D structural analysis of biological specimens, but is also broadly applicable to sample preparation of thin films and surface materials without the need for FIB "lift-out".

CryoFIB milling large tissue samples for cryo-electron tomography.

Project description:Cryo-electron tomography (cryoET) is a powerful tool for exploring the molecular structure of large organisms. However, technical challenges still limit cryoET applications on large samples. In particular, localization and cutting out objects of interest from a large tissue sample are still difficult steps. In this study, we report a sample thinning strategy and workflow for tissue samples based on cryo-focused ion beam (cryoFIB) milling. This workflow provides a full solution for isolating objects of interest by starting from a millimeter-sized tissue sample and ending with hundred-nanometer-thin lamellae. The workflow involves sample fixation, pre-sectioning, a two-step milling strategy, and localization of the object of interest using cellular secondary electron imaging (CSEI). The milling strategy consists of two steps, a coarse milling step to improve the milling efficiency, followed by a fine milling step. The two-step milling creates a furrow-ridge structure with an additional conductive Pt layer to reduce the beam-induced charging issue. CSEI is highlighted in the workflow, which provides on-the-fly localization during cryoFIB milling. Tests of the complete workflow were conducted to demonstrate the high efficiency and high feasibility of the proposed method.
