Perturbed mitochondria-organelle interactions are indicated in a variety of neurodegenerative diseases, but the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Here, we report a class of mitochondria-organelle communication: autophagosome/autophagic vacuole (AV)-Mito contact, which exhibits hypertethering in tauopathy neurons, consequently hampering AV retrograde transport. Such defects are attributed to accelerated turnover of the contact release factor TBC1D15, triggered by mitochondrial bioenergetic deficit-induced hyperactivity of the adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK). Increasing TBC1D15 levels or repressing AMPK activity normalizes AV-Mito contact release and restores retrograde transport of AVs, thereby increasing autophagic cargo clearance and reducing tau burden in tauopathy axons. Furthermore, overexpression of TBC1D15 enhances autophagic clearance and attenuates tau pathology, alleviating neurodegeneration and cognitive dysfunction in tauopathy mice. Taken together, our study provides mechanistic insights into AV-Mito contact dysregulation in tauopathy-related autophagy failure, laying the groundwork for the development of potential therapeutics to combat tauopathy diseases.

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.
