Serial protein crystallography in an electron microscope

Sumario: | For conventional three-dimensional microcrystal electron diffraction (3D ED/MicroED), a crystal is slowly rotated under an electron beam, leading to inevitable accumulation of radiation damage during data collection. In this work, the authors present a serial electron diffraction method, where still diffraction patterns from many protein nanocrystals are rapidly recorded and merged, which minimises radiation damage and only requires a slightly modified standard scanning transmission electron microscope. |
