PubMed AbstractEnergy-converting NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase, respiratory complex I, is central to energy metabolism by coupling NADH oxidation and quinone reduction with proton translocation across the membrane. ...Energy-converting NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase, respiratory complex I, is central to energy metabolism by coupling NADH oxidation and quinone reduction with proton translocation across the membrane. Electrons are transferred from the primary acceptor flavin mononucleotide via a chain of iron-sulfur clusters to quinone. The enigmatic cluster N1a is conserved, but not part of this electron transfer chain. We reported on variants of the complex in which N1a is not detectable by EPR spectroscopy. This was tentatively attributed to the lower redox potential of the variant N1a. However, it remained an open question, whether the variants contain this cluster at all. Here, we determined the structures of these variants by X-ray crystallography and cryogenic-electron microscopy. Cluster N1a is present in all variants and the shift of its redox potential is explained by nearby structural changes. A role of the cluster for the mechanism of the complex is discussed.

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.
