We combined two different maps from the same dataset (D_1300028166_em-additional-volume_P1.map.V2 and D_1300028166_em-additional-volume_P2.map.V2) to ...
We combined two different maps from the same dataset (D_1300028166_em-additional-volume_P1.map.V2 and D_1300028166_em-additional-volume_P2.map.V2) to generate a composite map (D_1300028166_em-volume_P1.map.V2).
The density of the G protein area could not be visualized clearly in the consensus map of this EM dataset. Therefore, we performed focused classification and local refinement to improve the density of the G protein area using symmetry expanded particles with C4 symmetry imposition, which required more number of particles. Finally, the number of particles used to reconstruct additional volume data 2 (D_1300028166_em-additional-volume_P2.map.V2) is 18,935 and the number of particles used to reconstruct additional volume data 1 (D_1300028166_em-additional-volume_P1.map.V2) is 205,343.
Furthermore, the resolution stated above is based on map resolution estimates calculated by a validation tool in Phenix, FSC (model) = 0.5.
