Cryo-Electron Tomography
3D imaging of macromolecules inside cells via tilt-series electron microscopy.
Cryo-Electron Tomography addresses 3d imaging of macromolecules inside cells via tilt-series electron microscopy. As a subfield of cryo electron microscopy, it sits within the broader biology branch of the Charted science tree and connects upward to the methodological themes of its parent area.
A more detailed frontier sourcing pass for this topic is deferred to a follow-up OpenAlex wave; the current sources include The resolution revolution (Kuhlbrandt, 2014), each kept as a placeholder anchor for the next iteration. See the parent topic (biology/structural-biology/cryo-electron-microscopy) for the wider context this page will eventually slot into.
