The high affinity of IgE for FcεRI may result in the binding of exogenously delivered antibody to effector cells prior to antigen engagement, potentially leading to IgE being presented multivalently to cancer cells. With the presumed higher avidity of antigen binding it is unclear whether increasing monovalent affinity of IgE improves anti-tumour functionality. To address this, we affinity-matured an anti-HER2 IgE, generating 12 clones with increased affinity for HER2. These clones were more potent than the parental antibody in inducing mast cell degranulation, with the most potent, EPS 232, achieving enhanced antibody-dependent cytotoxicity and phagocytosis of HER2-expressing cancer cells. EPS 232 delivered superior tumour growth inhibition in vivo, including in models expressing ultra-low levels of HER2, and it promoted greater infiltration of T cells and macrophages into tumours. These findings suggest that for therapeutic IgE, increasing antigen-binding affinity can lead to functional enhancements.

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.
