Two known Cas12e nucleases, DpbCas12e and PlmCas12e, are both effective in genome editing. However, many differences exist in their in vitro dsDNA cleavage activities, reflecting the diversity in Cas12e's enzymatic properties. To comprehensively understand the Cas12e family, we identify and characterize six unreported Cas12e members that vary in their CRISPR-locus architectures, PAM preferences, and cleavage efficacies. Interestingly, among all variants, PlmCas12e exhibits the most robust trans-cleavage activity and the lowest salt sensitivity in cis-cleavage. Further structural comparisons reveal that the unique NTSB domain in PlmCas12e is beneficial to DNA unwinding at high salt concentrations, while some NTSB-lacking Cas12e proteins rely on positively charged loops for dsDNA unwinding. These findings demonstrate how divergent evolution of structural elements shapes the nuclease diversity within the Cas12e family, potentially contributing to their adaptations to varying environmental conditions.

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.
