Its primary function is to provide resistance to aminoglycoside-based drugs by actively extruding these noxious compounds out of E. coli cells. AcrD can also mediate resistance to a limited range of other amphiphilic agents, including bile acids, novobiocin, and fusidic acids. As there is no structural information available for any aminoglycoside-specific RND pump, here we describe cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) structures of AcrD in the absence and presence of bound gentamicin. These structures provide new information about the RND superfamily of efflux pumps, specifically, that three negatively charged residues central to the aminoglycoside-binding site are located within the ceiling of the central cavity of the AcrD trimer. Thus, it is likely that AcrD is capable of picking up aminoglycosides via this central cavity. Through the combination of cryo-EM structural determination, mutagenesis analysis, and molecular simulation, we show that charged residues are critically important for this pump to shuttle drugs directly from the central cavity to the funnel of the AcrD trimer for extrusion. Here, we report cryo-EM structures of the AcrD aminoglycoside efflux pump in the absence and presence of bound gentamicin, posing the possibility that this pump is capable of capturing aminoglycosides from the central cavity of the AcrD trimer. The results indicate that AcrD utilizes charged residues to bind and export drugs, mediating resistance to these antibiotics.

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.
