Title
Fast maximum-likelihood refinement of electron microscopy images
Abstract
Motivation: Maximum-likelihood (ML) image refinement is a promising candidate to improve attainable resolution limits in 3D-EM. However, its large CPU requirements may prohibit application to 3D-structure optimization. Results: We speeded up ML image refinement by reducing its search space over the alignment parameters. Application of this reduced-search approach to a cryo-EM dataset yielded practically identical results as the original approach, but in approximately one day instead of one week of CPU. Availability: This work has been implemented in the public domain package Xmipp. Documentation and download instructions may be found at: http://www.cnb.uam.es/~bioinfo Contact: carazo@cnb.uam.es
