We previously demonstrated that intraperitoneal administration of a single dose of neutralizing human monoclonal antibody ...Rabies is a fatal encephalitis caused by viruses in the lyssavirus genus. We previously demonstrated that intraperitoneal administration of a single dose of neutralizing human monoclonal antibody (mAb) F11 can protect mice from fatal lyssavirus infection, post-central nervous system (CNS) invasion. However, the molecular basis of F11 neutralization remains unknown. Here, we use structural and functional analyses to define neutralizing activity of F11 and the related mAb, A6. Cryo-electron microscopy (EM) and negative-stain EM reveal that both mAbs bind Domain III of the glycoprotein G, recognizing a prefusion-specific epitope distinct from previously characterized antibodies including RVC20. Binding stabilizes the prefusion state, blocking membrane fusion. We furthermore found that a single dose of either A6 or RVC20 protected animals from mortality induced by Australian bat lyssavirus (ABLV), while promoting substantial long-term functional recovery. Moreover, A6 similarly protected animals from mortality following infection with a currently circulating wild isolate of (RABV). Transcriptomics analysis of brain RNA and protein-based analysis of brain tissue homogenates demonstrated that therapy with A6 broadly reduced expression of neuroinflammatory mediators during the acute phase of infection. Interestingly, infection of animals with a non-lethal attenuated mutant of ABLV resulted in similar neuroinflammation. Thus, a robust neuroinflammatory response to ABLV does not predict mortality. Overall, peripheral therapy with A6 and similar neutralizing mAbs promotes survival and long-term functional recovery from CNS-resident lyssavirus infection in a manner that includes suppression of the G pre- to postfusion transition and modulation of neuroinflammation.

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.
