Conjugative transfer of F plasmids residing in the was first reported in the 1940s, yet the architecture of F plasmid-encoded transfer channel and its physical relationship with the F pilus remain unknown. We visualized F-encoded structures in the native bacterial cell envelope by in situ cryoelectron tomography (CryoET). Remarkably, F plasmids encode four distinct structures, not just the translocation channel or channel-pilus complex predicted by prevailing models. The F1 structure is composed of distinct outer and inner membrane complexes and a connecting cylinder that together house the envelope-spanning translocation channel. The F2 structure is essentially the F1 complex with the F pilus attached at the outer membrane (OM). Remarkably, the F3 structure consists of the F pilus attached to a thin, cell envelope-spanning stalk, whereas the F4 structure consists of the pilus docked to the OM without an associated periplasmic density. The traffic ATPase TraC is configured as a hexamer of dimers at the cytoplasmic faces of the F1 and F2 structures, where it respectively regulates substrate transfer and F pilus biogenesis. Together, our findings present architectural renderings of the DNA conjugation or "mating" channel, the channel-pilus connection, and unprecedented pilus basal structures. These structural snapshots support a model for biogenesis of the F transfer system and allow for detailed comparisons with other structurally characterized T4SSs.

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.
