<span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Roman";color:black">One project focuses on structural investigation of Receptor Tyrosine Kinase (RTK) complexes assembly and signaling. Another project centers on
identification and structural characterization of signaling complexes that are associated with the MYC transcription factor. Both projects are funded and will benefit from an established array of reagents, tools, and expertise to build on. The Jura and Verba
labs closely collaborate at the interface of biochemistry and structural biology, with the emphasis on application of innovative technologies to advance the cryo-EM studies of complex signaling systems.

Mission and Potrero districts. UCSF state of the art cryo-EM facilities include four autoloader microscopes: two Titan Krios microscopes both equipped with energy filters, K3 detectors and phase plates and Arctica and Glacios microscopes both equipped with
K3 detectors. For users who prefer a personal relationship with the microscope we also have an FEI Polara with a K2 detector. In addition, the facilities recently acquired Aquilos cryo-FIB together with Leica high pressure freezer and Leica cryo-CLEM set up
enabling state of the art cryo-ET. Access to this equipment together with a highly collaborative environment presents a perfect training opportunity for anyone interested in learning or furthering their cryo-EM skills.
