PubMed AbstractHuman cytomegalovirus (HCMV) replication relies on a nucleocapsid coat of the 150 kDa, subfamily-specific tegument phosphoprotein (pp150) to regulate cytoplasmic virion maturation. While recent ...Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) replication relies on a nucleocapsid coat of the 150 kDa, subfamily-specific tegument phosphoprotein (pp150) to regulate cytoplasmic virion maturation. While recent structural studies revealed pp150-capsid interactions, the role of specific amino-acids involved in these interactions have not been established experimentally. In this study, pp150 and the small capsid protein (SCP), one of pp150's binding partners found atop the major capsid protein (MCP), were subjected to mutational and structural analyses. Mutations to clusters of polar or hydrophobic residues along the pp150-SCP interface abolished viral replication, with no replication detected in mutant virus-infected cells. Notably, a single amino acid mutation (pp150 K255E) at the pp150-MCP interface significantly attenuated viral replication, unlike in pp150-deletion mutants where capsids degraded outside host nuclei. These functionally significant mutations targeting pp150-capsid interactions, particularly the pp150 K255E replication-attenuated mutant, can be explored to overcome the historical challenges of developing effective antivirals and vaccines against HCMV infection.

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.
