Using apoferritin as a test ...This study reports the successful replacement of uranyl-based stains by either sodium phosphotungstate or ammonium molybdate in negative-staining electron microscopy. Using apoferritin as a test specimen, it is demonstrated that in combination with a facile on-grid fixation step, both stains yield comparable images to uranyl formate. Subsequently, using β-galactosidase, it is shown that both stains can also successfully be employed for single-particle analysis, yielding virtually indistinguishable results from uranyl formate. As both replacement stains are nonradioactive, they are not subjected to the same handling restrictions as uranyl-based stains. Therefore they are not only cheaper to use, but also make decentralized sample-grid preparation, directly after purification, accessible to a broader range of scientists.

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.
