PubMed AbstractAs a global transcription activator or repressor, the representative OmpR/PhoB family response regulator PhoP plays a crucial role in regulating bacterial pathogenicity and stress adaptation. ...As a global transcription activator or repressor, the representative OmpR/PhoB family response regulator PhoP plays a crucial role in regulating bacterial pathogenicity and stress adaptation. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the transcriptional regulation that define its differential functions remain largely unclear. In the present study, we determine three cryo-EM structures of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) PhoP-dependent transcription activation complexes (PhoP-TACs) and build one preliminary cryo-EM structure model of Mtb PhoP-dependent transcription repression complex (PhoP-TRC). In PhoP-TACs, tandem PhoP dimers cooperatively recognize various types of promoters through conserved PhoP-PHO box interactions, which displace the canonical interactions between the -35 element and σR4 of RNA polymerase (RNAP), unraveling complex transcription activation mechanisms of PhoP. In PhoP-TRC, one PhoP dimer binds and significantly distorts the upstream PHO box of the promoter cross-talked with the global nitrogen regulator GlnR through the PhoP-PHO box, PhoP-GlnR and αCTD-DNA interactions. This unique binding of PhoP creates steric hindrances that prevent additional GlnR binding, positioning PhoP within a unique 'competitive occluding model', as supported by prior biochemical observations. Collectively, these findings reveal the dual molecular mechanisms of PhoP-dependent transcription regulation, and offer valuable insights for further exploration of the enormous PhoP-like OmpR/PhoB family response regulators.

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.
