PubMed AbstractChronic neuropathic pain, caused by nerve damage or disease, is increasing in prevalence, but current treatments are ineffective and over-reliant on opioids. The neuronal glycine transporter, GlyT2, ...Chronic neuropathic pain, caused by nerve damage or disease, is increasing in prevalence, but current treatments are ineffective and over-reliant on opioids. The neuronal glycine transporter, GlyT2, regulates inhibitory glycinergic neurotransmission and represents a promising target for new analgesics. However, most GlyT2 inhibitors cause significant side effects, in part due to irreversible inhibition at analgesic doses. Here we develop a reversible inhibitor of GlyT2, RPI-GLYT2-82, and identify its binding site by determining cryo-EM structures of human GlyT2. We capture three fundamental conformational states of GlyT2 in the substrate-free state, and bound to either glycine, RPI-GLYT2-82 or the pseudo-irreversible inhibitor ORG25543. We demonstrate that RPI-GLYT2-82 dissociates from GlyT2 faster than ORG25543, providing analgesia in mouse neuropathic pain models without on-target side-effects or addiction liability. Our data provide a mechanistic understanding of allosteric inhibition of glycine transport, enabling structure-based design of non-opioid analgesics.

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.
