Abstract
Imaging biomacromolecules in action in a liquid environment poses a challenge to single-molecule experiments. Liquid-phase electron microscopy (LP-EM) has demonstrated its unique ability to reveal previously unseen transient dynamics and intermediate states of delicate biomacromolecular systems (protein, DNA/RNA) with deep-learning methods and careful evaluation of electron beam effects.
