Here, we present the high-resolution structural characterization of PPV using cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM). The reconstructed structure at 2.9 Å reveals a filamentous virion with a helical assembly formed by the coat protein (CP), which encapsidates a single-stranded RNA (ssRNA) genome. The structure of the CP core shows remarkable conservation with other potyviruses, with an RNA binding site and inter-subunit interactions mediated in part by the N-terminal arm, which is confirmed here to have a disordered structure. Mass spectrometry analysis identified numerous post-translational modifications, mostly phosphorylation, primarily in the flexible N-terminal region. In silico predictions revealed intrinsically disordered regions, which is compatible with the amyloidogenic properties of the CP. These results provide new insights into the architecture and assembly of PPV, offering a basis for future studies and, possibly, antiviral strategies.

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.
