PubMed AbstractThe human mitochondrial genome encodes 13 subunits of the oxidative phosphorylation system essential for energy metabolism to drive cellular activities. Translation of 11 mRNAs by membrane-bound ...The human mitochondrial genome encodes 13 subunits of the oxidative phosphorylation system essential for energy metabolism to drive cellular activities. Translation of 11 mRNAs by membrane-bound ribosomes is coupled to insertion of the nascent polypeptides into the inner membrane aided by the OXA1L insertase. To this end, the mechanism of membrane insertion of nascent polypeptides and the functional link to the translation process are not sufficiently understood. Here, we applied ribosome profiling to assess translation dynamics in combination with cryo-electron microscopy analysis of a COX1 ribosome-nascent chain complex to visualize cotranslational folding of the nascent chain. We find that the membrane topology of the translation product impacts translation speed and that positioning of amphipathic helices in the ribosome vestibule induces structural changes, correlating with translation pausing events. Thus, our findings reveal a link between translation process and folding and membrane insertion of nascent polypeptides at the inner mitochondrial membrane.

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.
