NLRP6 is a sensor protein in the nucleotide- ...Inflammasomes are large protein complexes that trigger host defense in cells by activating inflammatory caspases for cytokine maturation and pyroptosis. NLRP6 is a sensor protein in the nucleotide-binding domain (NBD) and leucine-rich repeat (LRR)-containing (NLR) inflammasome family that has been shown to play multiple roles in regulating inflammation and host defenses. Despite the significance of the NLRP6 inflammasome, little is known about the molecular mechanism behind its assembly and activation. Here we present cryo-EM and crystal structures of NLRP6 pyrin domain (PYD). We show that NLRP6 PYD alone is able to self-assemble into filamentous structures accompanied by large conformational changes and can recruit the ASC adaptor using PYD-PYD interactions. Using molecular dynamics simulations, we identify the surface that the NLRP6 PYD filament uses to recruit ASC PYD. We further find that full-length NLRP6 assembles in a concentration-dependent manner into wider filaments with a PYD core surrounded by the NBD and the LRR domain. These findings provide a structural understanding of inflammasome assembly by NLRP6 and other members of the NLR family.

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.
