This process is facilitated by viral fusion proteins, many of which are conformationally pH-sensitive. The specifics of how changes in pH initiate this fusion have remained largely elusive. This study presents the cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) structures of a prototype class III fusion protein, GP64, in its prefusion and early intermediate states, revealing the structural intermediates accompanying the membrane fusion process. The structures identify the involvement of a pH-sensitive switch, comprising H23, H245, and H304, in sensing the low pH that triggers the initial step of membrane fusion. The pH sensing role of this switch is corroborated by assays of cell-cell syncytium formation and dual dye-labeling. The findings demonstrate that coordination between multiple histidine residues acts as a pH sensor and activator. The involvement of a multi-histidine switch in viral fusion is applicable to fusogens of human-infecting thogotoviruses and other viruses, which could lead to strategies for developing anti-viral therapies and vaccines.

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.
