PubMed AbstractLeucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) is an essential regulator in cellular signaling and a major contributor to Parkinson's disease (PD) pathogenesis. 14-3-3 proteins are critical modulators of LRRK2 ...Leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) is an essential regulator in cellular signaling and a major contributor to Parkinson's disease (PD) pathogenesis. 14-3-3 proteins are critical modulators of LRRK2 activity, yet the structural basis of their interaction has remained unclear. Here, we present the cryo-electron microscopy structure of the LRRK2:14-3-3 autoinhibitory complex, revealing how a 14-3-3 dimer stabilizes an autoinhibited LRRK2 monomer through dual-site anchoring. The dimer engages both phosphorylated S910/S935 sites and the COR-A/B subdomains within the Roc-COR GTPase region. This spatial configuration constrains LRR domain mobility, reinforces the inactive conformation, and likely impedes LRRK2 dimerization and oligomer formation. Structure-guided mutagenesis studies show that PD-associated mutations at the COR:14-3-3 interface and within the GTPase domain weaken 14-3-3 binding and impair its inhibitory effect on LRRK2 kinase activity. Furthermore, we demonstrate that type I LRRK2 kinase inhibitor, which stabilizes the kinase domain in its active conformation, reduces 14-3-3 binding and promotes dephosphorylation at pS910 and pS935. Together, these findings provide a structural basis for understanding how LRRK2 is maintained in an inactive state, elucidate the mechanistic role of 14-3-3 in LRRK2 regulation, inform the interpretation of PD biomarkers, and suggest therapeutic strategies aimed at enhancing LRRK2-14-3-3 interactions to treat PD and related disorders.

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.
