However, differently sourced multi-subunit FDHs exhibit distinct catalytic biases, and the reasons remain unclear. On the basis of the exceptional observation of Rhodobacter aestuarii FDH favoring CO reduction, this study unveiled an oxidation inhibition effect in exclusively NADH/NAD-involved catalysis via kinetics analysis in terms of different redox couples. Substrate truncation positioned Fdhβ as the predominant subunit. Further studies based on structural and electrochemical insights interpreted that the slow desorption of NADH is the underlying determinant for the apparent catalytic bias. Knowledge-based rational design helped obtain a beneficial variant, RaFDH β E260Y, with a 10-fold increased catalytic activity in CO reduction, highlighting its potential for CO biotransformation and applications in low-carbon biomanufacturing. Eventually, bioinformatic analysis suggested that the diaphorase-like subunits and the catalysis regulation mechanism may widely exist in living organisms for modulating the redox balance of oxidoreductases, providing new insights into metabolism and catabolism.

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.
