Cryo‐electron microscopy (cryo‐EM) is a structural biological method that is used to determine the 3D structures of biomacromolecules. After years of development, cryo‐EM has made great achievements, which has led to a revolution in structural biology. In this article, the principle, characteristics, history, current situation, workflow, and common problems of cryo‐EM are systematically reviewed. In addition, the new development direction of cryo‐EM—cryo‐electron tomography (cryo‐ET), is discussed in detail. Also, cryo‐EM is prospected from the following aspects: the structural analysis of small proteins, the improvement of resolution and efficiency, and the relationship between cryo‐EM and drug development. This review is dedicated to giving readers a comprehensive understanding of the development and application of cryo‐EM, and to bringing them new insights. 相似文献

Phosphate-solubilizing bacteria (PSB) are important plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria that can increase soil fertility through the solubilization of insoluble inorganic phosphate and organophosphorus. In this study, a PSB, Burkholderia gladioli MEL01, was isolated and identified from rice–wheat rotation rhizosphere soil. MEL01 had an excellent phosphate-solubilizing capacity (reaching 107.69 mg/L) toward insoluble inorganic phosphate rock phosphate. HPLC analysis revealed that the mechanism of phosphate solubilization of MEL01 was probably due to secreted oxalic acid and gluconic acid transformation of phosphate from insoluble to soluble. MEL01 also exhibited 4030 U/L specific chitosanase activity when cultured with chitosan fermentation medium. Interestingly, the chitosan hydrolysis product chitooligosaccharide could significantly enhance the MEL01 phosphate-solubilizing capacity. Pot experiments showed that MEL01 chitosan medium fermentation liquor (MCMFL) could promote improvement of soil available phosphorus and pakchoi growth when supplemented with phosphate rock phosphate as the phosphate fertilizer. In addition, pot experiments demonstrated that MCMFL could also promote the growth of wheat, which could decrease the amount of compound fertilizer used. Microbial diversity analysis showed that the genera Pseudomonas, Burkholderia, Mycoplana, and Cellvibrio were enriched, which might participate in synergetic phosphate solubilization. Therefore, after fermentation with chitosan and fertilization with rock phosphates, MEL01 has potential as a phosphate biofertilizer in ecological agricultural production.
