Single Particle Tomography in EMAN2
Wed PM Practical
SPT (single particle tomography) capabilities are relatively new in EMAN2. They were inspired by Michael Schmid's studies on sub-volume averaging (mostly on viruses), and a stubborn student insisting on doing extensive sub-volume averaging on chaperons.
This session will cover the beta version of a small fraction of the SPT capabilities EMAN2 will eventually make available.
The session will cover:
- 1) SPT processing through EMAN2's workflow: e2workflow.py 2) Sub-volume extraction from tomograms using e2tomoboxer.py 3) "Preparation" of extracted particles for alignment
For a myriad of reasons, it is NOT recommendable to align and average sub-volumes directly after extraction.
- 4) Reference based alignment and averaging

We have prepared sample data for this tutorial. The tomogram in the link below comes from a tilt series of epsilon15 virus particles in vitro, recorded using Zernike phase-plate technology:
The following tomogram also comes from a tilt series of epsilon15 viruses in vitro but was recorded under conventional cryoEM imaging conditions:
