CryoEM in industry, with an artisanal touch
Cryogenic electron microscopy (cryoEM) can solve the structures of proteins bound by small or large molecules even when crystallization of the protein is impossible. This has led Genentech and other large pharmaceutical discovery groups to invest in cryoEM in order to complement other structural biology techniques and better support drug discovery efforts. I will give an overview of our technology development efforts in the cryoEM space, particularly centered around software, and I will illustrate how cryoEM enables drug discovery and biological research, using as examples targets of interest bound by small and large molecule drugs or candidates.
