The cholesterol ...Lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) is a high-density lipoprotein (HDL) modifying protein that profoundly affects the composition and function of HDL subspecies. The cholesterol esterification activity of LCAT is dramatically increased by apolipoprotein A-I (APOA1) on HDL, but the mechanism remains unclear. Using site-directed mutagenesis, cross-linking, mass spectrometry, electron microscopy, protein engineering, and molecular docking, we identified two LCAT binding sites formed by helices 4 and 6 from two antiparallel APOA1 molecules in HDL. Although the reciprocating APOA1 "belts" form two ostensibly symmetrical binding locations, LCAT can adopt distinct orientations at each site, as shown by our 9.8 Å cryoEM envelope. In one case, LCAT membrane binding domains align with the APOA1 belts and, in the other, the HDL phospholipids. By introducing disulfide bonds between the APOA1 helical domains, we demonstrated that LCAT does not require helical separation during its reaction cycle. This indicates that LCAT, anchored to APOA1 belts, accesses substrates and deposits products through interactions with the planar lipid surface. This model of the LCAT/APOA1 interaction provides insights into how LCAT and possibly other HDL-modifying factors engage the APOA1 scaffold, offering potential strategies to enhance LCAT activity in individuals with genetic defects.

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.
