PHASE FLIPPING ONLY32442081105 T33_dn10 tetrahedral nanoparticles (each carrying 4 copies of BG505-SOSIP antigen) have been 3D aligned in Relion. Particles have been aligned and refined using tetrahedral symmetry. Localized reconstruction v1.2 was then applied to extract the BG505-SOSIP trimeric subparticles, resulting in a total of 324420 starting particles. The full nanoparticle reconstruction can be found elsewhere (EMD-21185).
