You want to start tomography? Solve structures inside cells? Reach Nyquist 😳 ? @phaips.vd.st and I have a website for you! tomoguide.github.io
You'll find a tutorial on how to reconstruct tomograms, pick particles and do subtomogram averaging, using different software!
Hope it will be useful !

I'm thrilled to share that our story is now out in Science Advances! 🎉 We use quantitative imaging to map the mito central dogma, define translation hubs in the mitochondrial matrix, and show that they're replaced by Mitochondrial Stress Bodies (MSB) when mtRNA processing is perturbed 1/4
Spatial analysis of mitochondrial gene expression reveals dynamic translation hubs and remodeling in stress | Science Advances www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
Spatial analysis of mitochondrial gene expression reveals dynamic translation hubs and remodeling in stress
Quantitative imaging of the mitochondrial central dogma identifies translation hubs that are suppressed during stress.

The nested endosymbiont system of the citrus mealybug. Outer bacteria labeled in green (lipid stain), the inner bacteria in blue (DNA). These endosymbionts are normally tightly packed into eukaryotic cells but with osmotic shock, you can “pop” them out. Pink cell is a host cell with mitos in magenta

The final version of our work on the in-cell architecture of the mitochondrial respiratory chain is now online in @science.org 🎉
You can find the full story here www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
@verenaresch.bsky.social did a wonderful job on the cover and animation, she really brought it to life 👩🎨

In a new Science study, cryo–electron tomography captures the in-cell architecture of the mitochondrial respiratory chain, illuminating how the coordinated action of molecular machines drives life’s fundamental energy conversion.

Did you know that orchids have a big chunk of fungal mtDNA stuck in their own mitochondrial genomes?? In this new preprint, we found that fungal-derived tRNAs are functional in the orchid mitochondria.
