Electron Cryo‐Microscopy of TPPS(4)⋅2HCl Tubes Reveals a Helical Organisation Explaining the Origin of their Chirality

A widely studied achiral porphyrin, which is highly soluble in aqueous solutions (TPPS(4)), is shown to self‐assemble into helical nanotubes. These were imaged by electron cryo‐microscopy and a state‐of‐the‐art image analysis allows building a map at ∼5 Å resolution, one of the highest obtained so f...
