Figure 1. Evidence for a conformation of P22 portal protein by cryo-EM.

Figure 1

(a) Representative micrograph of PC-portal negatively stained with 1% uranyl formate (Scale bar, 1 μm). (b) Representative micrograph of frozen-hydrated PC-portals (Scale bar, 1 μm). (c) Selected, reference-free 2D class averages of frozen-hydrated particles showing top and side projection views of PC-portal. (d) A σA-weighted 2Fo–Fc difference electron density map computed at 3.30 Å resolution is displayed around a portion of the PC-portal protein model (Arg249Val276), which is shown as sticks. The density is displayed as cyan mesh contoured at 1.65σ above background.
