PubMed AbstractThe light-harvesting complexes of photosystem I (PSI) and PSII (LHCI and LHCII) in Bryopsis corticulans (B. corticulans) are homologous to those in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii and land plants but ...The light-harvesting complexes of photosystem I (PSI) and PSII (LHCI and LHCII) in Bryopsis corticulans (B. corticulans) are homologous to those in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii and land plants but exhibit a distinct chlorophyll (Chl) and carotenoid composition. Here, we report cryo-electron microscopy structures of the PSI-LHCI-LHCII supercomplex, comprising three LHCII trimers, and the CSMN-type PSII-LHCII supercomplex from B. corticulans. In the PSI supercomplex, ten LHCI subunits assemble into two belts and one heterodimer, coordinating a total of 86 Chl a and 65 Chl b molecules (Chl a/b ratio of 1.3, compared with 3.4 in C. reinhardtii), as well as 18 siphonaxanthin, 2 siphonein, and 13 α-carotene molecules. Of the three LHCII trimers bound to the PSI-LHCI supercomplex, two are anchored to the PSI core primarily via phosphorylated subunits, whereas the third, non-phosphorylated trimer is stabilized through interactions with Lhca-d and the adjacent LHCII trimer. In the CSMN-type PSII-LHCII supercomplex, the N-LHCII is positioned closer to the PSII core than in C. reinhardtii, likely owing to loss of the linker motif in the N-terminal region of B. corticulans CP29. Structure-based energy transfer analysis suggests that this spatial rearrangement enhances the efficiency of excitation energy transfer from N-LHCII to the PSII core. Collectively, these findings reveal structural adaptations that underlie the acclimation strategies of siphonous green algae inhabiting intertidal environments.

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.

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.
