Confidence maps from subtomogram averages. (a) Nuclear pore structure at 90 Å (EMD-8055) from eight pore particles: cryo-EM map at 2.0σ threshold (left, gray) and confidence map at 1% FDR threshold (right, blue). Note that the confidence map minimizes the appearance of noise. (b) ER-associated ribosome structure at 35 Å resolution (EMD-8056) in two side views at a 0.8σ threshold (left) and 1% FDR confidence map (right). Note that in confidence maps weaker densities assigned to the peripheral protein complexes TRAP and OST (arrows) can easily be visualized in the absence of noise.
