Electron counting helped realize the resolution revolution in single-particle cryoEM and is now accelerating the determination of MicroED structures. Its advantages are best demonstrated by new direct electron detectors capable of fast (kilohertz) event-based electron counting (EBEC). This strategy minimizes the inaccuracies introduced by coincidence loss (CL) and promises rapid determination of accurate structures.

Investigate the function of this gene, we used a knockout (KO) mouse model of its murine ortholog, . KO mice exhibit the characteristic phenotypic features seen in human TS patients, including increased epileptiform activity.
