In particular, the GABA RDL (resistant to dieldrin) receptor is targeted by old pore blockers or more recent allosteric modulators binding to a cavity of its transmembrane domain. Here, we describe three ligand-binding sites and the associated receptor conformations, using a combination of cryoelectron microscopy (cryo-EM), electrophysiology, and molecular dynamics. The GABA site geometry is well conserved with that of mammalian receptors, in line with the absence of orthosteric insecticide. The transmembrane modulation site, occupied here by abamectin, exists in a closed-pore conformation. We identify a second allosteric transmembrane site using a compound named chrodrimanin B. Structures also reveal the existence of a conformation-dependent PIP lipid site. We anticipate our results to be the starting point for investigations on the physiological modulation of insect GABA receptors. The honeybee receptor structures may also foster the search for species-specific, environmentally benign insecticides.

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.
