Incorporation of prior information in real space. (a) Macromolecular density is positive definite, which provides a substantial restraint. (b) The densities of protein and nucleic acids are known, and such information can be incorporated into cryo-EM real-space processing as a real-space prior. (c) Macromolecules are composed of either sample or solvent, allowing binary restraints leading on from existing masking approaches. (d) For single-particle analysis, connectivity can be assumed and provides a further restraint, which is already partially utilized in real space.
