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.
