The outer-membrane usher protein, together with a periplasmic chaperone, assembles thousands of pilin subunits into a highly ordered pilus fiber. The tip adhesin in complex with its cognate chaperone activates the usher to allow extrusion across the outer membrane. The structural requirements to translocate the adhesin through the usher pore from the periplasm to the extracellular space remains incompletely understood. Here, we present a cryoelectron microscopy structure of a quaternary tip complex in the type 1 pilus system from , which consists of the usher FimD, chaperone FimC, adhesin FimH, and the tip adapter FimF. In this structure, the usher FimD is caught in the act of secreting its cognate adhesin FimH. Comparison with previous structures depicting the adhesin either first entering or having completely exited the usher pore reveals remarkable structural plasticity of the two-domain adhesin during translocation. Moreover, a piliation assay demonstrated that the structural plasticity, enabled by a flexible linker between the two domains, is a prerequisite for adhesin translocation through the usher pore and thus pilus biogenesis. Overall, this study provides molecular details of adhesin translocation across the outer membrane and elucidates a unique conformational state adopted by the adhesin during stepwise secretion through the usher pore. This study elucidates fundamental aspects of FimH and usher dynamics critical in urinary tract infections and is leading to antibiotic-sparing therapeutics.

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.
