Despite numerous structures of recombinant FVIII in solution, the structural basis of the procofactor-membrane interface remains poorly defined. Traditional liposome platforms require special grids and often suffer from heterogeneous particle distribution and overcrowding, precluding high-resolution single-particle analysis (SPA), while membrane mimetics, nanodiscs, are too planar posing significant biophysical challenges.
OBJECTIVES: To establish a reproducible methodology for structural determination of membrane-bound coagulation factors and resolve the procofactor FVIII-lipid interface.
METHODS: We used methylated branched lipids to compensate for membrane planarity and employed cryo-EM to solve the structure of FVIII bound to lipids.
RESULTS: We resolved the cryo-EM structure of procofactor FVIII on nanodiscs and liposomes lipid membranes at 3.46 - 3.56 Å, respectively. Structural analysis reveals a definitive tilted docking orientation where both C domains mediate shallow interfacial insertion with the C2 domain acts as the primary anchor and the C1 domain serves as a secondary tether. This spatial arrangement structurally explains the high clinical severity of C2-interface mutations compared to more moderate C1 surface mutations.
CONCLUSION: Methylated branched lipids enable rapid, high-resolution characterization of membrane-associated clotting factors. This structure provides the first definitive template for the FVIII-lipid interface, serving as a benchmark for future studies on tenase complex assembly.

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.
