Real-space heterogeneous reconstruction, refinement, and disentanglement of CryoEM conformational states with HetSIREN by David Herreros, Carlos Perez Mata, Chari Noddings, Deli Irene, James Krieger, David A. Agard, Ming-Daw Tsai, Carlos Oscar Sanchez Sorzano, Jose Maria Carazo

“…Continuing with innovations, HetSIREN can also refine the images’ pose while conditioning the network with additional constraints to yield cleaner high-quality volumes, as well as addressing one of the most confusing issues in heterogeneity analysis, as it is the fact that structural heterogeneity estimations are entangled with pose estimation (and to a lesser extent with CTF estimation) thanks to its decoupling architecture.…”
