#CryoEM Structures of the Mg++ Channel CorA Reveal Symmetry Break upon Gating https://www.ScienceDirect.com/science/article/pii/S0092867415017195 In closed conformation: 5 identical subunits arranged tightly around 5-fold axis & pore. In open: they lose bridging ions & open to differing degrees with helix-hinging motions.

Quantifying the local resolution of cryo-EM density maps | Nature Methods

Quantifying the local resolution of #cryoEM density maps
https://www.Nature.com/articles/nmeth.2727 “Theory…based on the following idea: a L Angstrom feature exists at a pt…if a 3D local sinusoid of wavelength L is statistically detectable above noise at that point.”

QT:{{”
We propose a mathematical theory and an efficient algorithm for measuring local resolution that address all of the above limitations. The theory (Online Methods) is based on the following idea: a λ-Å feature exists at a point in the volume if a three-dimensional (3D) local sinusoid of wavelength λ is statistically detectable above noise at that point. A likelihood-ratio hypothesis test of the local sinusoid versus noise can detect this feature at a given P value (typically P = 0.05). We define the local resolution at a point as the smallest λ at which the local sinusoid is detectable, and we account for multiple testing with an FDR procedure.
