Abstract
In protein electron crystallography, both low dose electron diffraction patterns and images are needed to provide accurate amplitudes and phases respectively for a 3-dimensional reconstruction. A limitation of the slow scan CCD camera for recording electron images of protein crystals arises from the relatively large pixel size. The modulation transfer function of the camera with a P43 scintillator has been determined for 400 keV electrons and show an amplitude fall-off. In order to evaluate the structural resolution that the camera can deliver in imaging protein crystals, the ice-embedded catalase crystal was used as a test specimen.
