Abstract: The folding of RNA and protein molecules during their synthesis is a crucial self-assembly process that nature employs to convert genetic information into the complex molecular machinery that ...The folding of RNA and protein molecules during their synthesis is a crucial self-assembly process that nature employs to convert genetic information into the complex molecular machinery that supports life. Misfolding events are the cause of several diseases, and the folding pathway of central biomolecules, such as the ribosome, is strictly regulated by programmed maturation processes and folding chaperones. However, the dynamic folding processes are challenging to study because current structure determination methods heavily rely on averaging, and existing computational methods do not efficiently simulate non-equilibrium dynamics. Here we utilize individual-particle cryo-electron tomography (IPET) to investigate the folding landscape of a rationally designed RNA origami 6-helix bundle that undergoes slow maturation from a "young" to "mature" conformation. By optimizing the IPET imaging and electron dose conditions, we obtain 3D reconstructions of 120 individual particles at resolutions ranging from 23-35 Å, enabling us first-time to observe individual RNA helices and tertiary structures without averaging. Statistical analysis of 120 tertiary structures confirms the two main conformations and suggests a possible folding pathway driven by helix-helix compaction. Studies of the full conformational landscape reveal both trapped states, misfolded states, intermediate states, and fully compacted states. The study provides novel insight into RNA folding pathways and paves the way for future studies of the energy landscape of molecular machines and self-assembly processes.

Image processing

DetailsMotion correction of the multi-frame movie was conducted by MotionCor2. The tilt series of whole micrographs were initial aligned by IMOD. Additionally, to reduce the image noise, tilt series were further conducted by a machine learning, a median-filter process and a contrast enhancement method.

To reduce the missing-wedge artifact caused by the limited tilt angle range, the final 3D map was submitted to a low-tilt tomographic 3D reconstruction method (LoTToR). IPET 3D map was low-pass filtered to 0.8 nm following by Gaussian filtering (standard deviation is 3.0) and median filter (3x3x3) using EMAN and UCSF Chimera, and displayed by Chimera with applied the hidden dust function.

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.
