Abstract

As cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) enters mainstream structural biology, the demand for fitting methods is high. Here, we review existing flexible fitting methods for cryo-EM. We discuss their importance, potential concerns and assessment strategies. We aim to give readers concrete descriptions of cryo-EM flexible fitting methods with corresponding examples.

Highlights

  • In the past two years alone, more than 300 cryo-electron microscopy reconstructions with resolutions

  • Cryo-EM had shown that the apparent asymmetry is likely due to crystal lattice formation rather than intrinsic properties

  • Cryo-EM structures have been solved for helical polymers that cannot be crystallized in their native form because of symmetry mismatch with any crystal space group
