OTC deficiency (OTCD) is the most prevalent urea cycle ...Ornithine transcarbamylase (OTC) plays a significant role in the urea cycle, a metabolic pathway functioning in the liver to detoxify ammonia. OTC deficiency (OTCD) is the most prevalent urea cycle disorder. Here, we show that intravenously delivered human (h) mRNA by lipid nanoparticles (LNP) was an effective treatment for OTCD by restoring the urea cycle. We observed a homotrimer conformation of hOTC proteins produced by the mRNA-LNP in cells by cryo-electron microscopy. The immunohistochemistry revealed the mitochondria localization of produced hOTC proteins in hepatocytes in mice. In livers of mice intravenously injected with h-mRNA/LNP at 1.0 mg/kg, the delivered h mRNA levels steeply decreased with a half-life (t) of 7.1 h, whereas the produced hOTC protein levels retained for 5 days and then declined with a t of 2.2 days. In OTCD model mice (high-protein diet-fed hemizygous males), a single dose of h-mRNA/LNP at 3.0 mg/kg ameliorated hyperammonemia and weight loss with prolonged survival rate (22 days) compared with that of untreated mice (11 days). Weekly repeated doses at 0.3 and 1.0 mg/kg were well tolerated in wild-type mice and showed a dose-dependent amelioration of survival rate in OTCD mice, thus, showing the therapeutic potential of LNP-formulated h mRNA for OTCD.

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.
