Abstract
Cryo Electron Tomography (Cryo-ET) - which stems from the better known Cryo Electron Microscopy - is a powerful imaging technique that allows for high resolution structure determination of single samples in native conformation or in situ. Recent engineering and computational advances brought Cryo-ET back to the front-line of structural biology, opening up new applications and possibilities. Here, we describe the state of the art of Cryo-ET, with a particular focus on subtomogram averaging for single particle studies, and explore the recent technological advances that prove most promising for the future of this technique.
