How this bacterial complex and ...The AAA protease FtsH associates with HflK/C subunits to form a megadalton-size complex that spans the inner membrane and extends into the periplasm of E. coli. How this bacterial complex and homologous assemblies in eukaryotic organelles recruit, extract, and degrade membrane-embedded substrates is unclear. Following the overproduction of protein components, recent cryo-EM structures showed symmetric HflK/C cages surrounding FtsH in a manner proposed to inhibit the degradation of membrane-embedded substrates. Here, we present structures of native protein complexes, in which HflK/C instead forms an asymmetric nautilus-shaped assembly with an entryway for membrane-embedded substrates to reach and be engaged by FtsH. Consistent with this nautilus-like structure, proteomic assays suggest that HflK/C enhances FtsH degradation of certain membrane-embedded substrates. Membrane curvature in our FtsH•HflK/C complexes is opposite that of surrounding membrane regions, a property that correlates with lipid scramblase activity and possibly with FtsH's function in the degradation of membrane-embedded proteins.

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.
