PubMed AbstractRespiratory type II NADH:quinone oxidoreductases (NDH-II) are typically monotopic flavoproteins that make direct contact with the membrane to access the quinone pool. Here, we show that in Bacillus ...Respiratory type II NADH:quinone oxidoreductases (NDH-II) are typically monotopic flavoproteins that make direct contact with the membrane to access the quinone pool. Here, we show that in Bacillus subtilis, one NDH-II, termed Ndh, assembles with the helical membrane plugin (HMP) protein YjlC and forms supramolecular fibers. Genetic and biochemical analyses demonstrate that Ndh and YjlC proteins are essential for NADH oxidation. Cryo-EM analysis reveals that YjlC forms a tubular scaffold onto which multiple Ndh subunits are regularly docked via their C-terminal domain, repurposed from its classical role in direct membrane binding. These fibers can extend up to ~1000 Å, creating a continuous hydrophobic tunnel filled with lipids and quinones, thereby mimicking the membrane environment. Comparative genomics unveils that this partnership arose exclusively within Bacillales through the recruitment of an ancestral HMP originally associated with sulfide:quinone reductases. Together, our findings uncover a lineage-specific structural adaptation in which NDH-II enzymes depend on an HMP scaffold, expanding their functional diversity beyond the classical monotopic paradigm.

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.
