These structures reveal domain architecture of the acyl carrier protein mediating condensation and dehydration through dual site-selective crosslinking of the acyl carrier protein with the ketosynthase and dehydratase domains. Map density was sufficient to visualize full domain architecture with active site-bound probes and elucidate key interactions of four distinct crosslinked species. Here, iterative vectorial polyketide biosynthesis arises through an overall twisting and tilting architecture, enabling positioning and entry of the cognate substrate at each enzymatic domain. These structures present valuable details for future therapeutic design against mycocerosic acid biosynthesis in M. tuberculosis.

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.
