This process is critical for many cellular functions, but the underlying molecular mechanisms remain elusive. Here, we report a cryoelectron microscopy (cryo-EM) reconstruction of the 13-subunit human U11 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein particle (snRNP) complex in apo and substrate-bound forms, revealing the architecture of the U11 small nuclear RNA (snRNA), five minor spliceosome-specific factors, and the mechanism of the U12-type 5' splice site (5'SS) recognition. SNRNP25 and SNRNP35 specifically recognize U11 snRNA, while PDCD7 bridges SNRNP25 and SNRNP48, located at the distal ends of the particle. SNRNP48 and ZMAT5 are positioned near the 5' end of U11 snRNA and stabilize binding of the incoming 5'SS. Recognition of the U12-type 5'SS is achieved through base-pairing to the 5' end of the U11 snRNA and unexpected, non-canonical base-triple interactions with the U11 snRNA stem-loop 3. Our structures provide mechanistic insights into U12-dependent intron recognition and the evolution of the splicing machinery.

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.
