PubMed AbstractGain-of-function (GoF) missense variants in the two-pore domain (K2P) K+ channel TASK-1 (KCNK3) result in developmental delay with sleep apnea (DDSA), a neurodevelopmental channelopathy, while loss- ...Gain-of-function (GoF) missense variants in the two-pore domain (K2P) K+ channel TASK-1 (KCNK3) result in developmental delay with sleep apnea (DDSA), a neurodevelopmental channelopathy, while loss-of-function (LoF) variants cause pulmonary arterial hypertension. However, for the related TASK-3 channel (KCNK9), both LoF and GoF variants underlie a distinct neurodevelopmental disorder, KCNK9 imprinting syndrome (KIS). The relationship between genotype and phenotype in these disorders is further complicated because TASK-1 and TASK-3 can co-assemble into heteromeric channels with distinct functional properties. Here, we report additional patients with missense variants in KCNK3 and KCNK9 and investigate the effect of four novel genetic variants on the functional properties of homomeric and heteromeric TASK channels. Interestingly, two of these new pathogenic GoF variants (R131H and L122V) are found in both TASK-1 and TASK-3 and have equivalent functional effects on heteromeric TASK-1/TASK-3 channel activity, yet result in different clinical phenotypes. We have also determined a cryo-EM structure for the pathogenic L122V mutant TASK-3 channel, which suggests that subtle changes in gating and permeation within the inner cavity are responsible for its activatory effect. Overall, these results highlight the dominant role that homomeric TASK channels likely play in defining their associated channelopathies as well as the complexity of interpreting K+ channel dysfunction in pathophysiology.

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.
