Résumé

As the field of electron microscopy advances, the increasing complexity of samples being produced demand more involved processing methods. In this study, we have developed a new processing method for generating 3D reconstructions of tubular structures. Tubular biomolecules are common throughout many cellular processes and are appealing targets for biophysical research. Processing of tubules with helical symmetry is relatively straightforward for electron microscopy if the helical parameters are known, but tubular structures that deviate from helical symmetry (asymmetrical components, local but no global order, etc) present myriad issues. Here we present a new processing technique called Reconstruction of Average Subtracted Tubular Regions (RASTR), which was developed to reconstruct tubular structures without applying symmetry. We explain the RASTR approach and quantify its performance using three examples: a simulated symmetrical tubular filament, a symmetrical tubular filament from cryo-EM data, and a membrane tubule coated with locally ordered but not globally ordered proteins.
