Protein Tomography(TM) uses regularization theory to create a 3D imagefrom a series of 2D electron microscope images. The enhanced ProteinTomography(TM) method is developed in order to improve the investigation ofthe structure and interactions of macromolecules in solution and in celltissue samples. It does so by speeding up the visualization and analysissteps allowing for rapid identification of binding epitopes and drug-targetinteractions at the molecular level.
