Photochemical tools can be photoactuated with high spatiotemporal resolution but often they are unreliable in vivo because spatiotemporal variations of reagent concentration result in inhomogeneous bioactivity. We now describe ideal efficacy photoswitching, a paradigm that internally compensates for reagent concentration by self-competitive binding, allowing purely wavelength-dependent chromocontrol over bioactivity that is consistent from cell culture to deep tissues. We demonstrate this with photoswitches for endogenous transient receptor potential (TRP) C4 and C5 ion channels, reproducibly delivering strong agonism under 360-nm illumination, weak agonism under 385-nm illumination and strong antagonism under 440-nm illumination. These ligands unlock a range of high-precision investigations in TRP biology, from neuronal activity to exocytosis, reproductive signaling and smooth muscle contractility. The ideal efficacy photoswitching paradigm should also unlock high-performance chromocontrol over a wide range of sensory or signaling channels and receptors even in vivo.

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.
