We employed cryo-electron microscopy to determine a structure of the protein complex consisting of the N-terminal fragments from netrin-4 and laminin γ1. The structure reveals that netrin-4 binds laminin γ1 at the molecular interface where laminin β1 would have bound, thus inhibiting the assembly of the heterotrimeric laminin polymer nodes consisting of α1, β1, and γ1 subunits, and their polymerization into the extracellular lattice. The four orders of magnitude higher affinity of the netrin-4-laminin γ1 interaction results from the larger buried surface area than the one formed by β1 and γ1 laminins and greater electrostatic surface complementarity. Our findings, supported by site-directed mutagenesis, solid-phase binding analysis, laminin polymerization, and Schwann cell assays, collectively demonstrate that, in addition to inhibiting laminin polymerization, netrin-4 disassembles the pre-existing laminin lattice. The structure has the potential to facilitate the development of novel therapies for cancer treatment.

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.
