Currently approved vaccine and antibody therapies face major limitations, including only modest reductions in mortality and restricted accessibility due to their reliance on injection-based delivery and cold-chain transport and storage. To address these challenges, we developed a bispecific nanobody, Nanosota-EB1/EB2-Fc, composed of two nanobodies (camelid-derived single-domain antibodies, Nanosota-EB1 and Nanosota-EB2) that target distinct epitopes on the EBOV glycoprotein (GP) and are fused to a human Fc domain. Through cooperative contributions from both nanobodies, this bispecific nanobody strongly inhibits GP function and effectively overcomes the virus's decoy mechanism. A single dose provided strong protection in EBOV-infected mice, including when administered at late stages of infection. It was also effective when administered intranasally, offering a needle-free delivery option. Furthermore, its high in vitro stability indicates that it can be deployed without refrigeration. Taken together, this novel bispecific nanobody represents a promising next-generation therapeutic for EBOV, combining high potency with broad accessibility.

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.
