Several virus families within this order contain important human pathogens, including Sin Nombre virus ...The Bunyavirales order is a large and diverse group of segmented negative-strand RNA viruses. Several virus families within this order contain important human pathogens, including Sin Nombre virus (SNV) of the Hantaviridae. Despite the high epidemic potential of bunyaviruses, specific medical countermeasures such as vaccines or antivirals are missing. The multifunctional ~250 kDa L protein of hantaviruses, amongst other functional domains, harbors the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) and an endonuclease and catalyzes transcription as well as replication of the viral RNA genome, making it a promising therapeutic target. The development of inhibitors targeting these key processes requires a profound understanding of the catalytic mechanisms. Here, we established expression and purification protocols of the full-length SNV L protein bearing the endonuclease mutation K124A. We applied different biochemical in vitro assays to provide an extensive characterization of the different enzymatic functions as well as the capacity of the hantavirus L protein to interact with the viral RNA. By using single-particle cryo-EM, we obtained a 3D model including the L protein core region containing the RdRp, in complex with the 5' promoter RNA. This first high-resolution model of a New World hantavirus L protein shows striking similarity to related bunyavirus L proteins. The interaction of the L protein with the 5' RNA observed in the structural model confirms our hypothesis of protein-RNA binding based on our biochemical data. Taken together, this study provides an excellent basis for future structural and functional studies on the hantavirus L protein and for the development of antiviral compounds.

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.
