Big insights from a tiny dataset ⚡️
CryoCloud Map of the Month: SARS-CoV-2 Spike Protein
For September, we spotlight a vaccine research use case. In antigen design, cryo-EM is used to confirm that engineered proteins fold into the correct conformation and present key neutralising epitopes – both critical checkpoints before immunogenicity testing in the lab.
🔬 From a small Glacios screening dataset, we obtained a 3.2 Å map of the SARS-CoV-2 spike ectodomain, showing that even small datasets can confirm structural integrity and epitope accessibility, accelerating design decisions in vaccine R&D.
🧠 Processing on CryoCloud:
• 233 movies
• 3 h 20 min processing
• 3.2 Å final map
This month’s MOTM shows you don’t always need massive datasets or complex pipelines. With a solid sample, answers can come fast 🚀
