Tuberculosis is caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), which can attack various organs of the human body. Up to now, drug-resistant TB continues to be a public health threat. Pyrazinamide (PZA) is regarded as a sterilizing drug in the treatment of TB due to its distinct ability to target Mtb persisters. Previously we demonstrated that a D67N mutation in Mycobacterium tuberculosis polynucleotide phosphorylase (MtbPNPase, Rv2783c) confers resistance to PZA and Rv2783c is a potential target for PZA, but the mechanism leading to PZA resistance remains unclear. To gain further insight into the MtbPNPase, we determined the cryo-EM structures of apo Rv2783c, its mutant form and its complex with RNA. Our studies revealed the Rv2783c structure at atomic resolution and identified its enzymatic functional groups essential for its phosphorylase activities. We also investigated the molecular mechanisms underlying the resistance to PZA conferred by the mutation. Our research findings provide structural and functional insights enabling the development of new anti-tuberculosis drugs.

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.
