The allosteric transition between E and E is slow and can be observed as a lag in progress curves. Previous analysis of the lag suggested that unliganded hUGDH exists mainly as E, but two unique crystal forms suggest that the enzyme favors the E state. Resolving this discrepancy is necessary to fully understand the allosteric mechanism of hUGDH. Here, we used cryo-EM to show that recombinant hUGDH expressed in copurifies with UDP-4-keto-xylose (UX4O), which mimics the UDP-Xyl inhibitor and favors the E state. Cryo-EM studies show that removing UX4O from hUGDH shifts the ensemble to favor the E state. This shift is consistent with progress curve analysis, which shows the absence of a lag for unliganded hUGDH. Inhibition studies show that hUGDH has similar affinities for UDP-Xyl and UX4O. The discovery that UX4O inhibits allosteric hUGDH suggests that UX4O may be the physiologically relevant inhibitor of allosteric UGDHs in bacteria that do not make UDP-Xyl.

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.
