Method: Subtomogram averaging
Aggregation State: Particle
Specimen preparation [1]
Concentration: 0.076 mg/mL
Details: The sample was enriched by two step of sedimentation in sucrose gradient. The sucrose was washed out in several drops of buffer, the last of which included fiducial markers (10 nm bovine serum albumin (BSA)-coated gold beads) for tilt series alignment

Image processing [1]
Details: Tilt series were aligned based on fiducials with IMOD and mass normalized using PRIISM. The ctf correction was processed on tilt series using TomoCTF. Tomogram were reconstructed using SIRT algorithm with TOMO3D. The number of frames per image were variable, with 8 frames at full tilt, through to 4 frames at zero tilt.

Type: OTHER
Details: The particular geometry of the centriole with its repeat every 8.3nm along the proximal-distal axis and its coarse 9 fold symmetry was used to construct from each tomogram a model lowly affected by missing wedge. Those coarse models were volume aligned and an initial reference were averaged from all the subtomogram particle using the coarse orientation of the particles determined that way. This model was iteratively refined. The reference model for the next iteration was made using 70% of the particles based on the best correlation during the alignment. For the finer step of refinement, a mask was used to restrict the alignment to an area covering 3 of the 8.3nm repeats.
