PubMed AbstractCo-resident temperate viruses are ubiquitous in prokaryotes, which interact with each other and affect their shared host. However, how such virus-virus and virus-host interactions play out in Archaea ...Co-resident temperate viruses are ubiquitous in prokaryotes, which interact with each other and affect their shared host. However, how such virus-virus and virus-host interactions play out in Archaea remains largely unexplored. Here, we discover a tripartite mutualistic interaction among the co-existing temperate viruses SNJ1 and SNJ2 and their host, haloarchaeon Natrinema sp. J7. We find that the SNJ2 provirus encodes two type IV pilins (T4Ps), which hijack the host secretion machinery to assemble into distinct filaments on the host cell surface. The SNJ2-encoded pili are dispensable for the SNJ2 infection but serve as receptors for SNJ1. As a quid pro quo, SNJ1 enhances the replication of SNJ2. Furthermore, the viral pili are the dominant filaments on the cell surface and promote biofilm formation and motility of the host. A number of SNJ2-like proviruses harbor T4P genes, suggesting that T4P-mediated virus-virus and virus-host interactions are widespread in Haloarchaea.

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.
