Bacteriophage and host ...To protect themselves from host attack, numerous jumbo bacteriophages establish a phage nucleus-a micron-scale, proteinaceous structure encompassing the replicating phage DNA. Bacteriophage and host proteins associated with replication and transcription are concentrated inside the phage nucleus while other phage and host proteins are excluded, including CRISPR-Cas and restriction endonuclease host defense systems. Here, we show that nucleus fragments isolated from ϕPA3 infected Pseudomonas aeruginosa form a 2-dimensional lattice, having p2 or p4 symmetry. We further demonstrate that recombinantly purified primary Phage Nuclear Enclosure (PhuN) protein spontaneously assembles into similar 2D sheets with p2 and p4 symmetry. We resolve the dominant p2 symmetric state to 3.9 Å by cryo-EM. Our structure reveals a two-domain core, organized into quasi-symmetric tetramers. Flexible loops and termini mediate adaptable inter-tetramer contacts that drive subunit assembly into a lattice and enable the adoption of different symmetric states. While the interfaces between subunits are mostly well packed, two are open, forming channels that likely have functional implications for the transport of proteins, mRNA, and small molecules.

Jan 31, 2019. EMDB accession codes are about to change! (news from PDBe EMDB page)

EMDB accession codes are about to change! (news from PDBe EMDB page)

  • The allocation of 4 digits for EMDB accession codes will soon come to an end. Whilst these codes will remain in use, new EMDB accession codes will include an additional digit and will expand incrementally as the available range of codes is exhausted. The current 4-digit format prefixed with “EMD-” (i.e. EMD-XXXX) will advance to a 5-digit format (i.e. EMD-XXXXX), and so on. It is currently estimated that the 4-digit codes will be depleted around Spring 2019, at which point the 5-digit format will come into force.
  • The EM Navigator/Yorodumi systems omit the EMD- prefix.

Jul 12, 2017. Major update of PDB

Major update of PDB

  • wwPDB released updated PDB data conforming to the new PDBx/mmCIF dictionary.
  • This is a major update changing the version number from 4 to 5, and with Remediation, in which all the entries are updated.
  • In this update, many items about electron microscopy experimental information are reorganized (e.g. em_software).
  • Now, EM Navigator and Yorodumi are based on the updated data.
