This makes capsid protein an attractive target for antiviral development. ...Hepatitis B virus capsid protein plays a role in almost every step of viral replication, from self-assembly to genome release. This makes capsid protein an attractive target for antiviral development. Capsid assembly modulators (CAMs) are direct-acting antivirals that bind capsid protein, leading to empty or aberrant complexes instead of an infectious virus. CAMs can also disrupt the capsid, preventing new infection. To understand CAM activity, we examined the energetics of CAM-capsid interaction. We observed negative cooperativity of CAM-binding kinetics and thermodynamics. These correlate with large changes in capsid architecture that presage capsid rupture. We propose that CAMs induce an accumulated strain on the capsid. Understanding the interplay of forces and architecture will help guide the development of CAMs.

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.
