PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
The Cancer Research Technology Program (CRTP) develops and implements emerging technology, cancer biology expertise and research capabilities to accomplish NCI research objectives. The CRTP is an outward-facing, multi-disciplinary hub purposed to enable the external cancer research community. Within the CRTP, the Advanced Cryo-Electron Microscopy Technology Group explores emerging imaging platforms and develops methodologies, focusing on projects with the potential to make cryo-EM a more widely accessible technique. The team’s focuses on single-particle analysis and cryo-electron tomography. Our structure-determination methods are initially developed on standard cryo-EM specimens, such as beta-galactosidase, and later applied to more biologically relevant samples, especially where high-resolution information is needed to provide mechanistic insights. Ultimately, the goal is to sufficiently streamline the process to efficiently obtain high-resolution cryo-EM structures for a broad range of targets.
