Imaging DetailsGrids were transferred to a Titan Krios electron microscope (FEI) operated at 300 kV equipped with a Gatan K2 Summit direct detection camera. Images of hASIC1a was collected using the automated image acquisition software SerialEM in counting mode with 29,000x magnification yielding a pixel size of 1.014 A. The total dose of 50 e-/A2 was fractionated to 40 frames with 0.2 s per frame. Nominal defocus values ranged from -1.8 to -2.5 um. The dataset of hASIC1a included 3,235 micrographs.
