In Drosophila melanogaster, Dicer-2 (DmDcr-2)-mediated RNAi pathway plays important roles in defending against viral infections and protecting genome integrity. During the maturation of siRNAs, two cofactors can regulate DmDcr-2's functions: Loqs-PD that is required for dsRNA processing, and R2D2 that is essential for the subsequent loading of siRNAs into effector Ago2 to form RISC complexes. However, due to the lack of structural information, it is still unclear whether R2D2 and Loqs-PD affect the functions of DmDcr-2 simultaneously. Here we present several cryo-EM structures of DmDcr-2/R2D2/Loqs-PD complex bound to dsRNAs with various lengths by the Helicase domain. These structures revealed that R2D2 and Loqs-PD can bind to different regions of DmDcr-2 without interfering with each other. Furthermore, the cryo-EM results demonstrate that these complexes can form large oligomers and assemble into fibers. The formation and depolymerization of these oligomers are associated with ATP hydrolysis. These findings provide insights into the structural mechanism of DmDcr-2 and its cofactors during siRNA processing.

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.
