Here, we asked how a dual-axis acquisition scheme would improve three-dimensional reconstructions of microtubules assembled in vitro. We show that in single-axis tomograms, microtubules oriented close to the perpendicular of the tilt axis display diminished contrast, and ultimately transform into sets of parallel lines oriented in the direction of the electron beam when observed in cross-section. Analysis of their three-dimensional Fourier transform indicates that this imaging artifact is due to a decrease in the angular sampling of their equatorial components. Although the second orthogonal series does not fully complement the first one at the specimen level due to increased radiation damage, it still allows elongated features oriented in any directions to be correctly reconstructed, which might be essential for highly heterogeneous specimens such as cells.

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.
