Here, we have focused on ...Marine algae viruses are important for controlling microorganism communities in the marine ecosystem and played fundamental roles during the early events of viral evolution. Here, we have focused on one major group of marine algae viruses, the single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) viruses from the family. We present the capsid structure of the bacilladnavirus DNA virus type II (CtenDNAV-II), determined at 2.4-Å resolution. A structure-based phylogenetic analysis supported the previous theory that bacilladnaviruses have acquired their capsid protein via horizontal gene transfer from a ssRNA virus. The capsid protein contains the widespread virus jelly-roll fold but has additional unique features; a third β-sheet and a long C-terminal tail. Furthermore, a low-resolution reconstruction of the CtenDNAV-II genome revealed a partially spooled structure, an arrangement previously only described for dsRNA and dsDNA viruses. Together, these results exemplify the importance of genetic recombination for the emergence and evolution of ssDNA viruses and provide important insights into the underlying mechanisms that dictate genome organization. Single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) viruses are an extremely widespread group of viruses that infect diverse hosts from all three domains of life, consequently having great economic, medical, and ecological importance. In particular, bacilladnaviruses are highly abundant in marine sediments and greatly influence the dynamic appearance and disappearance of certain algae species. Despite the importance of ssDNA viruses and the last couple of years' advancements in cryo-electron microscopy, structural information on the genomes of ssDNA viruses remains limited. This paper describes two important achievements: (i) the first atomic structure of a bacilladnavirus capsid, which revealed that the capsid protein gene presumably was acquired from a ssRNA virus in early evolutionary events; and (ii) the structural organization of a ssDNA genome, which retains a spooled arrangement that previously only been observed for double-stranded viruses.

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.
