Although TRPM1 ...Transient receptor potential melastatin 1 (TRPM1) is a membrane protein essential for vision in dim light, and mutations in TRPM1 cause complete congenital stationary night blindness. Although TRPM1 shares sequence similarity to other TRPM ion channels such as TRPM3, whether it independently functions as an ion channel remains controversial. This controversy is largely caused by TRPM1's challenging biochemical behaviors that prevent detailed molecular characterization. In this work, we isolate TRPM1 and determine its structures using cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM). The structures reveal a canonical tetrameric fold in the intracellular domain, consistent with other TRPM family members that are ion channels. Surprisingly, in the transmembrane domain, despite the presence of the conserved voltage sensor-like domain (VSLD) and pore domain (PD) in a domain-swapped fashion, the VSLD and PD are arranged with an opposite handedness compared to other related channels. This inverted transmembrane domain allows the formation of a large pore-like structure that supports the role of TRPM1 as an ion channel. This non-canonical architecture of TRPM1 may also confer unique permeation and pharmacological properties.

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.
