We have estimated the signal-to-noise ratios and spectral signal-to-noise ratios for three steps in the electron microscopic image formation from data obtained experimentally. An important result is that structural noise, i.e., the irreproducible component of the object prior to image formation, is substantial, and of the same order of magnitude as the reproducible signal. Based on this result, the noise modeling for testing new classification techniques can be improved.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></issue></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">LeBarron, Jamie</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Grassucci, Robert A</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Shaikh, Tanvir R</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Baxter, Bill</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sengupta, Jayati</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Frank, Joachim</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Exploration of parameters in cryo-EM leading to an improved density map of the E. coli ribosome.</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">J Struct Biol</style></secondary-title><alt-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">J.

The parameters examined were pixel size, window size, and mode of Fourier amplitude enhancement at high spatial frequencies. In addition, the strategy of switching from large to small pixel size during angular refinement was explored. The relationship between resolution (in Fourier space) and the number of particles was observed to follow a lin-log dependence, a relationship that appears to hold for other data, as well. By optimizing the above parameters, and using a lin-log extrapolation to the full data set in the estimation of resolution from half-sets, we obtained a 3D map from 131,599 ribosome particles at 6.7A resolution (FSC=0.5).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue></record></records></xml>
