SC ...Secretory Immunoglobulin A (SIgA) is the most abundant antibody at the mucosal surface. It possesses two additional subunits besides IgA: the joining chain (J-chain) and secretory component (SC). SC is the ectodomain of the polymeric immunoglobulin receptor (pIgR), which functions to transport IgA to the mucosa. How the J-chain and pIgR/SC facilitate the assembly and secretion of SIgA remains incompletely understood. Furthermore, during the infection of Streptococcus pneumoniae, the pneumococcal adhesin SpsA hijacks pIgR/SC and SIgA to gain entry to human cells and evade host defense. How SpsA targets pIgR/SC and SIgA also remains elusive. Here we report a cryo-electron microscopy structure of the Fc region of IgA1 (Fcα) in complex with the J-chain and SC (Fcα-J-SC), which reveals the organization principle of SIgA. We also present a structure of Fcα-J-SC complexed with SpsA, which uncovers the specific interactions between SpsA and human pIgR/SC. These results advance the molecular understanding of SIgA and shed light on S. pneumoniae pathogenesis.

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.
