Abstract
The three‐dimensional structure of proteasomes from the archaebacterium Thermoplasma acidophilum has been determined to a resolution of approximately 2 nm from electron micrographs of negatively stained preparations using the method of random conical tilting. The particles turn out to be essentially cylinder‐shaped barrels, 15 nm long and 11 nm wide, enclosing a tripartite inner compartiment. An account is given of some of the present limitations which prevent to attain a higher resolution and possible ways to overcome these limitations are indicated.
