ELECTRON MICROSCOPY


Sample

Human DNA polymerase theta helicase domain

Specimen Preperation
Sample Aggregation State PARTICLE
Vitrification Instrument HOMEMADE PLUNGER
Cryogen Name ETHANE
Sample Vitrification Details 3 microliters of sample was applied to the surface of the grid, blotted with Whatman 1 filter paper until 2 seconds after the liquid spot on the filter paper stopped spreading, and the grid was plunged into a liquid ethane pool cooled by liquid nitrogen using a manual plunge freezer.
3D Reconstruction
Reconstruction Method SINGLE PARTICLE
Number of Particles 138712
Reported Resolution (Å) 3.5
Resolution Method FSC 0.143 CUT-OFF
Other Details We performed local refinement of a single protomer, and then multiplied the output protomer map to fit the C2 symmetric dimer map.

Refinement Space REAL
Refinement Protocol FLEXIBLE FIT
Refinement Target Cross-correlation coefficient
Overall B Value 55.33
Fitting Procedure ?
Details We used ISOLDE to flexibly fit one protomer into the locally refined protomer map. The output protomer model was multiplied and we used ISOLDE to fit two protomers into the dimer map.
