PubMed AbstractRapid emergence of new variants of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has prompted an urgent need for the development of broadly applicable and potently neutralizing ...Rapid emergence of new variants of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has prompted an urgent need for the development of broadly applicable and potently neutralizing antibody platform against the SARS-CoV-2, which can be used for combatting the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). In this study, based on a noncompeting pair of phage display-derived human monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) specific to the receptor-binding domain (RBD) of SARS-CoV-2 isolated from human synthetic antibody library, we generated K202.B, a novel engineered bispecific antibody with an immunoglobulin G4-single-chain variable fragment design, with sub- or low nanomolar antigen-binding avidity. Compared with the parental mAbs or mAb cocktail, the K202.B antibody showed superior neutralizing potential against a variety of SARS-CoV-2 variants in vitro. Furthermore, structural analysis of bispecific antibody-antigen complexes using cryo-electron microscopy revealed the mode of action of K202.B complexed with a fully open three-RBD-up conformation of SARS-CoV-2 trimeric spike proteins by simultaneously interconnecting two independent epitopes of the SARS-CoV-2 RBD via inter-protomer interactions. Intravenous monotherapy using K202.B exhibited potent neutralizing activity in SARS-CoV-2 wild-type- and B.1.617.2 variant-infected mouse models, without significant toxicity in vivo. The results indicate that this novel approach of development of immunoglobulin G4-based bispecific antibody from an established human recombinant antibody library is likely to be an effective strategy for the rapid development of bispecific antibodies, and timely management against fast-evolving SARS-CoV-2 variants.

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.
