PubMed AbstractDesigning safe and effective oligonucleotide (ON) therapeutics requires thorough understanding of structural-activity relationship (SAR) with the intended on-target(s) as well as the unintended off- ...Designing safe and effective oligonucleotide (ON) therapeutics requires thorough understanding of structural-activity relationship (SAR) with the intended on-target(s) as well as the unintended off-target(s). Despite encouraging pharmacodynamic activity in a Phase 1b study, development of the first-generation anti-miR-17 ON RGLS4326 for the treatment of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease was discontinued due to dose-limiting central nervous system (CNS)-related toxicity observed in nonclinical chronic toxicity studies. Here, we provide SAR evidence that the nucleobase guanine at the 3'-terminus of RGLS4326 drives an unexpected off-target aptamer-like direct interaction with α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid receptor (AMPAR), thereby causing CNS toxicity. By replacing the 3'-terminal guanine with adenine, we discover the next-generation anti-miR-17 RGLS8429 that is devoid of off-target AMPAR interaction and CNS toxicity while preserving the potency against the on-target miR-17. Here, we show a way to avoid off-target CNS effects and, more importantly, data that support the clinical development of RGLS8429.

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.
