T4F are defined as helical polymers of type 4 pilins. Recent advances in cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) led to structures of several T4F, revealing that the long N-terminal α-helix (α1) - the trademark of pilins - packs in the centre of the filaments to form a hydrophobic core. In diderm bacteria - all available bacterial T4F structures are from diderm species - a portion of α1 is melted (unfolded). Here we report that this architecture is conserved in phylogenetically distant monoderm species by determining the structure of Streptococcus sanguinis T4P. Our 3.7 Å resolution cryo-EM structure of S. sanguinis heteropolymeric T4P and the resulting full atomic model including all minor pilins highlight universal features of bacterial T4F and have widespread implications in understanding T4F biology.

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.
