We ...Systemic gene therapy using adeno-associated virus (AAV) vectors is approved for the treatment of several genetic disorders, but challenges and toxicities associated with high vector doses remain. We report an alternate receptor for AAV (AAVR2, carboxypeptidase D [CPD]), which is distinct from the multi-serotype AAV receptor (AAVR). AAVR2 enables the transduction of clade E AAVs, including AAV8, and determines an exclusive AAVR-independent transduction pathway for AAV11 and AAV12. We characterized direct binding between the AAV8 capsid and AAVR2 by cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) and identified contact residues. We observed that AAV8 directly binds to the carboxypeptidase-like domain 1 of AAVR2 via its variable region VIII and demonstrated that AAV capsids that lack AAVR2 binding can be bioengineered to engage with AAVR2. Finally, we overexpressed a minimal functional AAVR2 to enhance AAV transduction in vivo. Our study provides insights into AAV biology and clinically deployable solutions to reduce dose-related toxicities associated with AAV vectors.

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.
