Gaussian Mixture Model-Based Focused Refinement for Enhanced Flexible Structure Determination in CryoEM and CryoET

Muyuan Chen

Dynamic conformational changes of proteins are crucial for their cellular functions. Here we present a unified refinement pipeline for flexible protein structures in both CryoEM an…

Improving Resolution and Resolvability of Single Particle CryoEM using Gaussian Mixture Models

Muyuan Chen, Michael F. Schmid, Wah Chiu

Cryogenic electron microscopy is widely used in structural biology, but its resolution is often limited by the dynamics of the macromolecule. Here, we developed a refinement protoc…

Integrating molecular models into CryoEM heterogeneity analysis using scalable high-resolution deep Gaussian mixture models

Muyuan Chen, Bogdan Toader, Roy Lederman

Resolving the structural variability of proteins is often key to understanding the structure-function relationship of those macromolecular machines. Single particle analysis using…

Deep learning based mixed-dimensional GMM for characterizing variability in CryoEM

Muyuan Chen, Steven Ludtke

Structural flexibility and/or dynamic interactions with other molecules is a critical aspect of protein function. CryoEM provides direct visualization of individual macromolecules…
