What’s Cryo-Electron Microscopy

Cryo-Electron Microscopy (cryo-EM) is revolutionizing the field of structural biology, offering unprecedented insights into the microscopic world. At Shuimu Biosciences, we harness the power of cryo-EM to accelerate and empower new drug development, combining Nobel Prize-winning technology with artificial intelligence (AI) to push the boundaries of what’s possible in life sciences.

Understanding Cryo-EM

Cryo-EM is a cutting-edge imaging technique that allows scientists to observe biological molecules in their natural, hydrated state, without the need for dyes or crystallization. This method freezes samples rapidly, preserving their structure and enabling the high-resolution imaging of biomolecules, which is crucial for understanding their function and interaction at the atomic level.

The Role of Cryo-EM in Drug Discovery

At Shuimu Biosciences, our cryo-EM services are integral to the drug discovery process. By revealing the detailed structures of target molecules, cryo-EM provides a roadmap for designing drugs that can interact with these molecules with high specificity. This structural insight is invaluable for developing more effective and targeted therapies, making cryo-EM structures a cornerstone of modern pharmacology.
