== Abstract ==

Cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) is one of the most powerful experimental methods for macromolecular structure determination. However, accurate DNA/RNA structure modeling from cryo-EM maps is still challenging especially for protein-DNA/RNA or multi-chain DNA/RNA complexes. Here we propose a deep learning-based method for accurate de novo structure determination of DNA/RNA from cryo-EM maps at <5 Å resolutions, which is referred to as EM2NA. EM2NA is extensively evaluated on a diverse test set of 50 experimental maps at 2.0–5.0 Å resolutions, and compared with state-of-the-art methods including CryoREAD, ModelAngelo, and phenix.map_to_model. On average, EM2NA achieves a residue coverage of 83.15%, C4’ RMSD of 1.06 Å, and sequence recall of 46.86%, which outperforms the existing methods. Moreover, EM2NA is applied to build the DNA/RNA structures with 10 to 5347 nt from an EMDB-wide data set of 263 unmodeled raw maps, demonstrating its ability in the blind model building of DNA/RNA from cryo-EM maps. EM2NA is fast and can normally build a DNA/RNA structure of <500 nt within 10 minutes.
