Glacios 2 Cryo-TEM and the Evolution of 200 kV Cryo-EM<\/h2>\n

Cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) has come a long way since the first viral structures were published by the Dubochet group in the early 1980s. Year over year, there is an almost exponential increase in the number of cryo-EM structures submitted to the Protein Data Bank (PDB), many at resolutions better than 3 \u00c5. Notably, these structures are often for membrane proteins and other systems that have been resistant to traditional crystallographic analysis.<\/p>\n

This advancement was made possible by the evolution of cryo-EM technology, including the new 200 kV Thermo Scientific Glacios 2 Cryo-TEM<\/a>, which delivered early and impressive results after it was announced in October 2022<\/a>. In March 2024, Themo Fisher Scientific introduced an optional low-energy-spread cold field emission gun (E-CFEG) that, in combination with the Glacios 2 Cryo-TEM, broke the world record for resolution at 200 kV for apoferritin (1.5 \u00c5).<\/p>\n

Realizing potential with the Glacios 2 Cryo-TEM<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The vast majority of sub-3 \u00c5 structures submitted to the PDB were determined with 300 kV cryo-transmission electron microscopes (cryo-TEMs) that were specifically designed for high-resolution data collection at cryogenic temperatures. In fact, it is safe to say that 300 kV has been treated as the de facto accelerating voltage for high-quality structural analysis. When they were introduced, 200 kV instruments such as the Thermo Scientific Talos Arctica and Glacios Cryo-TEMs were, therefore, largely seen as screening tools that could be used to optimize samples without spending time on the higher-resolution 300 kV instruments.<\/p>\n

However, advanced components and software are not reserved exclusively for 300 kV microscopes. They have allowed 200 kV cryo-TEMs to experience their own \u201cresolution revolution,\u201d and research groups around the world are beginning to produce highly valuable results directly at 200 kV.<\/p>\n

A revolution in productivity and cryo-EM resolution<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The new Glacios 2 Cryo-TEM showcases many of the advancements that have made high-quality analysis possible on 200 kV instruments. Hardware optimization has focused on improved specificity and sensitivity in electron detection. For instance, the Thermo Scientific Falcon 4i Direct Electron Detector<\/a> enables high detective quantum efficiency (DQE) across the full spectral range, capturing both small and flexible proteins as well as larger structures using fewer images. When coupled with a novel Thermo Scientific Selectris or Selectris X Energy Filter<\/a>, signal is limited to the zero-loss, elastically scattered electrons, producing high-contrast TEM data for higher throughput and higher resolution structures. In addition, the E-CFEG option provides a narrow energy spread that results in higher-contrast images and higher resolution. This add-on makes it possible to efficiently solve structures at resolutions of 2 \u00c5 or less.<\/p>\n

With the introduction of Thermo Scientific Smart EPU Software<\/a>, both automated screening and data acquisition for single particle cryo-EM analysis are now available through an approachable graphical user interface. Featuring unique AI algorithms, Smart EPU Software allows for thousands of images to be collected reproducibly and with minimal user input, and integrates aberration-free image shift (AFIS), producing more accurate, usable data with each scan.<\/p>\n

What follows are just a few examples of how 200 kV cryo-TEM is being utilized by researchers internationally to produce novel, actionable results.<\/p>\n

Drug discovery at 200 kV<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Structure-based drug design<\/a> has been a longstanding goal of pharmaceutical research, as it enables the development of targeted treatments based on molecular insights. Efforts have largely been hampered by the speed at which actionable data can be collected and processed. Modern cryo-EM, however, has made significant strides toward structure-enabled therapeutics thanks to high-throughput, high-resolution data.<\/p>\n

For example, in March 2024, Professor Basil Greber of the Institute of Cancer Research, London, published a paper in Nature Communications<\/a> demonstrating how the Glacios 2 Cryo-TEM was used to determine the structure of a CDK-activating kinase (CAK). These enzymes are involved in cell regulation and are actively being investigated as potential targets for cancer treatments.<\/p>\n

Drug binding occupancy on this complex was analyzed following a fast-screening strategy of only a few hours of data collection per sample. A large dataset enabled a 2.3 \u00c5 structure in less than a day where an atomic model could be built unambiguously. This project was a collaboration with Basil Greber from Institute of Cancer Research, London, and Professors Simak Ali and Matthew J. Fuchter from Imperial College, London.<\/p><\/div>\n

GPCR structure determination<\/strong><\/h2>\n

G protein-coupled receptors<\/a> (GPCRs) compose a large class of membrane proteins that are promising therapeutic targets for a variety of diseases, but they are notoriously difficult to crystallize, hampering crystallographic characterization. Cryo-EM has made significant headway in the analysis of GPCRs in recent years, but this work has been limited to 300 kV instruments. However, researchers at Monash University were able to successfully determine the structure of a GPCR to 3.2 \u00c5 resolution<\/a> on a 200 kV Glacios Cryo-TEM, a platform whose general ease of use and increased throughput has the potential to significantly broaden structure-based drug design for GPCRs.<\/p>\n

\u03bc-Opioid Receptor cryo-EM structure with nanobody antagonists<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The \u03bc-opioid receptor (\u03bcOR) is a prototypical member of the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) family. Due to the recent opioid crisis, there is an interest in developing new modulators of \u03bcOR function. Andreas Borland\u2019s lab, using a Talos Arctica Cryo-TEM in combination with a Falcon 3EC Detector, determined the structure of \u03bcOR with the nanobody NbE (NbE-\u00b5OR complex) to 3.5 \u00c5.<\/a> The structure explains the high selectivity of NbE and provides insights for further drug design targeting \u03bcOR.<\/p>\n

The enzyme fucosidase plays a vital role in certain bacterial infections as well as fucosidosis, a neurodegenerative disorder impacting lysosomal storage. A complete understanding of fucosidase catalysis, along with any potential targeted drug design, has been hampered by the lack of 3D structures for the enzyme. Utilizing a Glacios Cryo-TEM, researchers at the University of York were able to resolve the structure of human lysosomal \u03b1-L-fucosidase (FucA1) down to 2.49 \u00c5 resolution.<\/a> They were also able to clearly visualize FucA1 in complex with an inhibitor, deoxyfuconojirimycin. At this level of detail, the precise architecture of the catalytic center could be determined as well as the location of various disease-related mutations. This serves as a promising step toward targeted treatment of fucosidase-related diseases and disorders.<\/p>\n

200 kV advancements beyond single particle cryo-EM: MicroED of organometallics<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Microcrystal electron diffraction<\/a> (microED) is a burgeoning small molecule characterization technique propelled by the increased availability of high-resolution cryo-electron microscopy equipment. MicroED can analyze much smaller samples (i.e., nanocrystals) compared to X-ray diffraction, and, unlike other electron diffraction techniques, is designed to be compatible with sensitive organic samples such as protein crystals.<\/p>\n

A recent study from the University of York showcases how 200 kV cryo-TEM can be used for the MicroED analysis of single crystal organometallics. Specifically, single crystal to single crystal (SC-SC) transformations, performed on grid, can be used to generate and characterize otherwise highly reactive organometallic species. Here, nanocrystals composed of a norbornadiene complex were hydrogenated by the addition of H2 gas into a \u03c3-alkane (norbornane) complex. The resulting crystallographic structures were resolved down to 0.95 \u00c5 resolution. These results not only showcase the quality of MicroED data that can be generated at 200 kV, but more broadly demonstrate the potential of cryo-EM for on-grid single-crystal chemistry.<\/a><\/p>\n

Cryo-electron tomography on the Glacios 2 Cryo-TEM<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Tomography is a reconstructive imaging technique that combines multiple 2D snapshots collected at different angles into a single 3D dataset. Cryo-electron tomography<\/a> (cryo-ET), specifically, is used on thinned cell samples to obtain high-resolution 3D information on organelles and proteins within their cellular context. Using the Glacios 2 Cryo-TEM, tomography data can be obtained from whole bacterial cells or lamellae prepared with Thermo Scientific Aquilos<\/a> or new Arctis Cryo-Focused Ion Beam<\/a> (Cryo-FIB) instruments. In the Magnetospirillum example shown below, membranous compartments, filaments, and larger proteins can clearly be visualized within the 300 nm thick plunge-frozen bacterial cell.<\/p>\n

The future of 200 kV cryo-EM<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Cryo-EM software and hardware continue to improve at an astonishing pace, painting a bright future for the technique. Notably, cutting-edge data processing, along with AI-driven modeling of cryo-EM data, is showing incredible potential for taking us from sample to structure faster than ever before.<\/p>\n
