Here, we address this by engineering a thermally stabilized virus-like particle (sVLP) derived from the poliovirus serotype 1 (PV1) Mahoney-SC7 mutant and elucidating its atomic-level structure. Produced at remarkably high yields in Pichia pastoris yeast, our engineered sVLP maintains a native, D-antigenic conformation and elicits a potent neutralizing antibody response in mice, in sharp contrast to unstable wild-type VLP (wtVLP) which adopts an expanded, non-immunogenic form. Our 2.43 Å resolution cryo-EM structure reveals precisely how seven stabilizing mutations cooperatively enhance inter-protomer contacts and rigidify surface loops to lock the particle in its immunogenic state. We further define a critical D-antigenic epitope by determining the 2.60 Å structure of the sVLP in complex with a novel D-antigen-specific, neutralizing monoclonal antibody, 3G10, elucidating the structural mechanisms of D-antigen recognition and virus neutralization by 3G10. These findings provide a definitive structural blueprint for engineering stable, immunogenic vaccines for PVs and other enteroviruses and also deliver a vital reagent for ensuring vaccine quality control.

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.
