However, membranes are often highly curved and have a strong contrast in cryoET tomograms, which masks the signals from membrane proteins. These factors pose difficulties in observing and revealing the structures of membrane proteins in situ. Here, we report a membrane-flattening method and the corresponding software, MPicker, designed for the visualization, localization, and orientation determination of membrane proteins in cryoET tomograms. This method improves the visualization of proteins on and around membranes by generating a flattened tomogram that eliminates membrane curvature and reduces the spatial complexity of membrane protein analysis. In MPicker, we integrated approaches for automated particle picking and coarse alignment of membrane proteins for sub-tomogram averaging. MPicker was tested on tomograms of various cells to evaluate the method for visualizing, picking, and analyzing membrane proteins.

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.
