  1. Traveling Through Proteomes Using 3D-EM and AFM Nanoanalysis, July 10, 2006, ETHZ Andreas Engel Maurice E. Müller Institiute, Biozentrum University of Basel, Switzerland

  2. Electron Tomography

  3. 2D-projections => 3D-reconstruction Principle of electron tomography 3D-object => set of 2D-projections W. Baumeister, R. Grimm, J. Walz: Trends Cell Biol 9 (1999) 81-85

  4. Weighted Backprojection

  5. Sporozoites (Plasmodium berghei)

  6. Apical part of a sporozoite cell membrane polar rings microtubules ER rhoptries micronemes dense granules

  7. Nanoanalytics of Soluble Complexes:Scanning Transmission Electron Microscopy (STEM)

  8. Scanning Transmission EM 200 Å Philippe Ringler

  9. BF DF PM STEM Hardware Single electron counting Beam current Acceleration voltage 100 kV Pressure: < 10-10 Torr

  10. 14 nm TMV Analysis

  11. Actin Collaboration with Ueli Aebi, M.E. Müller Insitute

  12. From mass to shape Mueller et al, J Mol Biol 99 STEM

  13. Nanoanalytics of Membrane Complexes:Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM)

  14. Membrane Proteins exist in the Bilayer Bert de Groot & Helmut Grubmüller

  15. Example: Bacteriorhodopsin

  16. Cytosolic Surface of Bacteriorhodopsin Dimitrios Fotiadis, unpublished

  17. CS of Bacteriorhodopsin: Force-induced Conformational Changes 10 nm (A), 4 nm(B, C and D) Müller et al. (1995), J. Mol. Biol. & Fotiadis et al. (2002), Micron

  18. The Surface Dynamics of Bacteriorhodopsin Similarity ranked images are assembled into a movie Low force High force Scheuring et al., European Biophysics Journal

  19. Bacteriorhodopsin: Surface Energy Landscape pd(r) peak position probability of domain d Low force High force Fd =  -kTlnpd(r) Scheuring et al. Eur Biophys J 2002 6 kT Low force High force

  20. Unzipping Bacteriorhodopsin Oesterhelt et al. Science 2000

  21. Conclusions • Electron and atomic force microscopies offer great tools for cellular nanoanalytics • Electron tomography provides entire picture of a cell • STEM makes the link between mass and shape • AFM is an ideal tool for assessing structure & dynamics of membrane proteins
