Abstract
Cryo-EM, electron microscopy of frozen-hydrated samples, has had the advantage of being able to easily study the structures of large and flexible macromolecular complexes but the limitation in resolution unlike other techniques such as X-ray and NMR. However, the recent development of instruments and methodology enables the structures of many macromolecules to be determined at near-atomic resolutions by cryo-EM. Here I present and discuss the latest progress in structural biology using cryo-EM with various examples of their applications.
