Since only far-red light is available at a deep layer of the colony, P. crispa has evolved a molecular system for photosystem II (PSII) excitation using far-red light with uphill energy transfer. However, the molecular basis underlying this system remains elusive. Here, we purified a light-harvesting chlorophyll (Chl)-binding protein complex from P. crispa (Pc-frLHC) that excites PSII with far-red light and revealed its ring-shaped structure with undecameric 11-fold symmetry at 3.13 Å resolution. The primary structure suggests that Pc-frLHC evolved from LHCI rather than LHCII. The circular arrangement of the Pc-frLHC subunits is unique among eukaryote LHCs and forms unprecedented Chl pentamers at every subunit‒subunit interface near the excitation energy exit sites. The Chl pentamers probably contribute to far-red light absorption. Pc-frLHC's unique Chl arrangement likely promotes PSII excitation with entropy-driven uphill excitation energy transfer.

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.
