Nearly all newly synthesized ...The replication-dependent histones H2A and H4 are among the most highly expressed proteins in eukaryotes during the S phase to ensure packaging of replicated chromosomes. Nearly all newly synthesized H2A and H4 are N-terminally acetylated by N-terminal acetyltransferase D (NatD) following excision of the initiator methionine by methionine aminopeptidases (MetAPs). These modifications influence chromatin function, but how they occur cotranslationally on these exceptionally abundant and small proteins was not understood. Here, we show that the nascent polypeptide-associated complex controls the cotranslational modification of histones H2A and H4 by recruiting NatD and the upstream enzyme MetAP1 to ribosomes. MetAP1 and NatD cooperate on the ribosome to create a confined environment for the efficient sequential modification of the nascent histone chain. Our work provides a mechanistic model for the early steps of histone maturation.

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.
