In this study, we introduce an AlphaFold-based algorithm designed to analyze nucleosome-binding proteins from a dataset of over 7600 human nuclear proteins. Using proteins that interact with the nucleosome acidic patch as a benchmark, our screening achieves a successful prediction rate of 77% (23 out of 30 proteins). This predictive approach has led to the identification of ARID4A and ARID4B as novel nucleosome-binding proteins. Additionally, this analytical method was used to study RING-family ubiquitin E3 ligase RNF168, demonstrating that RNF168 dimerization enhances its binding to the nucleosome, a finding confirmed by cryogenic-electron microscopy structural analysis. Our findings offer a rapid and effective method for the discovery and characterization of nucleosome-binding proteins and emphasize the significant role of ubiquitin E3 ligase dimerization in epigenetic regulation.

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.
