But nobody knew what these structures looked like in archaea, or how the microbes gained access to their spooled DNA. Using computer simulations and electron microscopy experiments on the genetic ...

IDEAS The search for your missing single-cell ancestor is heating up Microbes that look like strange deep-sea creatures are turning out to be a missing link in the story of how we got here.

The researchers also used cryo-electron microscopy to determine the molecular structures of the two ECNs, at resolutions of 3.8 and 4.1 Ångstroms.

The researchers also used cryo-electron microscopy to determine the molecular structures of the two ECNs, at resolutions of 3.8 and 4.1 Ångstroms. One ECN was from Pyrobaculum calidifontis, which had ...

An international team led by UVA’s Edward H. Egelman, PhD, a leader in the field of high-tech cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM), has cracked the case.

Some archaea propel themselves to incredible speeds by rotating a spiral-shaped filament called an archaellum. Using a powerful cryo-electron microscope, the new study examined this closer than ...
