Extended Data Fig. 1. Purification of recombinant GluA1/γ3 and GluA2(F231A)/γ2 (Gly743) and representative Cryo-EM data processing workflow.

Extended Data Fig. 1

a, Representative 4-12% Bis-Tris SDS-PAGE gel (of three purifications) stained with Coomassie blue, indicating elution of the GluA1/γ3 and GluA2(F231A)/γ2 (Gly743) complex from FLAG beads. For gel source data, see Supplementary Fig. 1. b, Representative motion-corrected micrograph of resting-state GluA1/γ3 (scale bar, 50 nm). c, Representative 2D class averages of resting state GluA1/γ3. d, General cryo-EM data processing workflow used for all data sets in this work. Raw movies were first motion-corrected in RELION (blue), and generated micrographs were then imported into CryoSPARC (black) for CTF estimation, particle picking, and cleaning. Selected particles were converted and imported back into RELION for Bayesian polishing, CTF refinement, and further 3D refinement. Refined or polished particles as appropriate were then returned to CryoSPARC for non-uniform refinement and 3D variability analysis. e, Focused refinement and classification scheme used for data sets in this work. Focused refinement on LBD-TMD or TMD regions was performed to improve the resolution. Classifications on TARP loops and NTD were performed by using soft masks on those regions or doing particle subtraction.
