Compared with yeast, metazoan SAGA uniquely incorporates a 150-kDa splicing-factor module (SPL), also present in U2 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein (U2snRNP). Metazoan gene duplication further specialized shared TFIID/SAGA subunits into SAGA-specific paralogs (TAF5L and TAF6L), but the functional consequences of this divergence are unknown. We report the structure of endogenous human SAGA purified via an affinity ligand from cells that were not disturbed by any genomic engineering tools. Our work reveals the high-resolution structure of SPL and the TAF6L HEAT repeat domain that provides the SPL with a docking surface. We elucidate how SPL and the HEAT repeats are incorporated into SAGA. We identify major structural differences between TAF6L/TAF5L and their canonical paralogs that enable SPL accommodation. SPL engages SAGA through a substantially smaller interface than in U2snRNP, despite sharing a deeply inserted helical motif. The seemingly weaker interaction of SPL with SAGA raises the possibility that SAGA relays this module to the splicing machinery.

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.
