The best characterized myosin filaments are those found in insect indirect flight muscle (IFM) in which the flight-powering muscles are not attached directly to the wings. Four insect orders, Hemiptera, Diptera, Hymenoptera, and Coleoptera, have evolved IFM. IFM thick filaments from the first three orders have highly similar myosin arrangements but differ significantly among their non-myosin proteins. The cryo-electron microscopy of isolated IFM myosin filaments from the Dipteran described here revealed the coexistence of two distinct filament types, one presenting a tubular backbone like in previous work and the other a solid backbone. Inside an annulus of myosin tails, tubular filaments show no noticeable densities; solid filaments show four paired paramyosin densities. Both myosin heads of the tubular filaments are disordered; solid filaments have one completely and one partially immobilized head. Tubular filaments have the protein stretchin-klp on their surface; solid filaments do not. Two proteins, flightin and myofilin, are identifiable in all the IFM filaments previously determined. In , flightin assumes two conformations, being compact in solid filaments and extended in tubular filaments. Nearly identical solid filaments occur in the large water bug , which flies infrequently. The tubular filaments occur in younger flies, and the solid filaments appear in older flies, which fly less frequently if at all, suggesting that the solid filament form is correlated with infrequent muscle use. We suggest that the solid form is designed to conserve ATP when the muscle is not in active use.

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.
