Understanding the ...Human rhinoviruses (RV) cause severe socioeconomic problems and are also associated to, or exacerbate, severe respiratory diseases, but no anti-RV drugs are available so far. Understanding the functional role(s) of capsid-RNA interactions in the RV virion may contribute to antiviral drug development. Our previous studies showed that the genome inside the RV-B14 virion is organized as a capsid-bound RNA dodecahedral cage formed by 30 intrachain RNA duplexes; and that positively charged capsid residues close to each RNA duplex, including K4058 and K2052, are involved in viral infection by promoting virion assembly and controlling genome uncoating. In this study, cryogenic electron microscopy was used to investigate the structural basis that underlies the functional roles of those positively charged residues in the RV virion. The atomic structure and equilibrium conformation dynamics of mutant virions carrying either K4058A or K2052A substitutions were compared with those of the parental RV-B14 virion under identical conditions. The results showed that both K4058 and K2052 residues stabilize the RNA duplex structure, and modulate capsid conformation and equilibrium dynamics. Notably, the partially disorganized RNA elements in the K4058A mutant virion strongly resemble those previously found by other researchers in an alternative wild-type RV-B14 structure. Comparison of the two alternative wild-type virion structures and the mutant virion structures supports the existence of two conformational states of the RV virion in the absence of cell receptor: a basal state with well-structured RNA duplexes, and an activated, RNA release-prone state in which the RNA duplexes are partially disorganized.

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.
