2- Cyclo-Cryo : Structure determination of an artificial virus made of self-assembling cyclodextrin and dsDNA by cryo-EM
Catherine Venien, IMPMC (Porteur : Matthieu Sollogoub, IPCM)
In a preliminary work an assembly made by mixing cyclodextrins and DNA was obtained. Such artificial construct resembles natural assemblies such as viruses. Our goal is to obtain a high-resolution 3D structure of the complex by cryo-electron microscopy using state-of-the art image analysis and modeling techniques developed by our group.
