A new statistical metric for robust target detection in cryo-EM using 2D template matching

A novel statistical metric for 2D template matching (2DTM), the 2DTM p-value, has been developed to improve the detection of targets in cryo-EM images under various imaging and sample conditions, particularly for smaller and aspherical targets.

Novel starting points for fragment-based drug design against human heat-shock protein 90 identified using crystallographic fragment screening

In this first instance of crystallographic fragment screening completed by the crystallographic fragment-screening platform of the Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility (SSRF) in China, 800 fragments were screened and 91 compounds were identified to bind at eight different sites.
