Defocus levels were determined using RobEM (http://cryoem.ucsd.edu/programs.shtm).
The resolution of the SINV (pH 6.4) map was assessed using Fourier shell correlation with a threshold value of 0.5. The reconstruction maps of the SINV–liposome complexes were computed to 25.0-Å resolution. The resolutions of these maps were estimated to be ∼30 Å because the virus membrane bilayers (32-Å peak-to-peak distance) were clearly distinguishable.
Reconstruction was computed without imposing any symmetry.
