In , a primary σ factor forms the RNAP holoenzyme to express housekeeping genes. The σ contains a large insertion between the conserved regions 1.2 and 2.1, the σ non-conserved region (σ), but its function remains to be elucidated. In this study, we determined the cryo-EM structures of the RNAP σ holoenzyme and its complex with promoter DNA (open complex, RPo) at 4.2 and 5.75 Å resolutions, respectively, to reveal native conformations of RNAP and DNA. The RPo structure presented here found an interaction between the σ and promoter DNA just upstream of the -10 element, which was not observed in a previously determined RNAP transcription initiation complex (RPo plus short RNA) structure by X-ray crystallography because of restraint of crystal packing effects. Disruption of the σ and DNA interaction by the amino acid substitutions (R157A/R157E) influences the DNA opening around the transcription start site and therefore decreases the transcription activity of RNAP. We propose that the σ and DNA interaction is conserved in proteobacteria, and RNAP in other bacteria replaces its role with a transcription factor.

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.
