Glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored protein biosynthesis is an attractive target. The GPI mannosyltransferase I (GPI-MT-I), composed of Gpi14 and Pbn1, catalyzes the essential first mannose transfer from dolichol-phosphomannose (Dol-P-Man) to the GPI precursor. This initial mannosylation is critical for fungal cell wall integrity, yet the molecular basis of GPI-MT-I assembly and substrate recognition remains poorly understood. Here, we present the cryo-EM structure of GPI-MT-I in complex with Dol-P-Man, revealing how Gpi14 and Pbn1 form a stable complex and engage the mannose donor. An AlphaFold3-predicted acceptor-bound model further defines the structural basis of acceptor substrate recognition and suggests a plausible catalytic mechanism. Comparison with structural homologs highlights a distinct mode of substrate engagement by GPI-MT-I. Together, these findings establish a mechanistic framework for GPI-MT-I function with broader implications for the GPI-MT family.

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.
