RNA nano-architectures have shown promise as delivery vehicles for RNA interference (RNAi) substrates, allowing multiple functional entities to be combined on a single particle in a programmable fashion. Rather than employing a completely bottom-up approach to scaffold design, here multiple copies of an existing synthetic supramolecular RNA nano-architecture serve as building blocks along with additional motifs for the design of a novel truncated tetrahedral RNA scaffold, demonstrating that rationally designed RNA assemblies can themselves serve as modular pieces in the construction of larger rationally designed structures. The resulting tetrahedral scaffold displays enhanced characteristics for RNAi-substrate delivery in comparison to similar RNA-based scaffolds, as evidenced by its increased functional capacity, increased cellular uptake and ultimately an increased RNAi efficacy of its adorned Dicer substrate siRNAs. The unique truncated tetrahedral shape of the nanoparticle core appears to contribute to this particle's enhanced function, indicating the physical characteristics of RNA scaffolds merit significant consideration when designing platforms for delivery of functional RNAs via RNA nanoparticles.

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.
