New timsToF in CMS

New mass spectrometer timsToF Pro was installed in November 2020 in the Structural mass spectrometry core facility in BioCev and is now fully in operation. The mass spectrometer will be used mostly for shotgun proteomics, hydrogen-deuterium exchange and covalent labelling experiments, and native mass spectrometry with ion mobility separation.

Cryo-EM atomic resolution studies now published in Nature

As we have reported already on June 1, 2020, two studies reported in preliminary published manuscripts on bioRxives.org showed that single particle cryo-EM data can be now resolved to 1.20Å or 1.25Å resolution, respectively. The groups of Sjors H.W. Scheres (LMB-MRC, Cambridge) and Holger Stark (MPI Göttingen) had for the first time shown that atomic resolution is attainable by single particle cryo-EM. Now, in November 2020, both studies appeared back-to-back in Nature.
