Abstract |
Characterizing the detailed structure of the mammalian synapse is of crucial importance to understand its mechanisms of function. Here I describe a protocol to study synaptic architecture by cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET), a powerful electron microscopy technique that enables 3D visualization of unstained, fully hydrated cellular structures at molecular resolution. The protocol focuses on purified synaptic terminals ("synaptosomes"), currently the most suitable preparation to analyze mammalian synaptic architecture by cryo-ET. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 22 August 2018.
All research outputs
#15,543,612
of 23,100,534 outputs
Outputs from Methods in molecular biology
#5,412
of 13,208 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#211,310
of 333,760 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Methods in molecular biology
#97
of 249 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,100,534 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 22nd percentile – i.e., 22% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 13,208 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.4. This one is in the 44th percentile – i.e., 44% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 333,760 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 28th percentile – i.e., 28% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 249 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 45th percentile – i.e., 45% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
