These tau aggregates spread in a stereotypical spatiotemporal pattern in the brain of each disease, suggesting that the misfolded tau can recruit soluble monomers to adopt the same pathological structure. To investigate whether recruited tau indeed adopts the same structure and properties as the original seed, here we template recombinant full-length 0N3R tau, 0N4R tau, and an equimolar mixture of the two using sarkosyl-insoluble tau extracted from AD brain and determine the structures of the resulting fibrils using cryoelectron microscopy. We show that these cell-free amplified tau fibrils adopt the same molecular structure as the AD paired-helical filament (PHF) tau but are unable to template additional monomers. Therefore, the PHF structure alone is insufficient for defining the pathological properties of AD tau, and other biochemical components such as tau posttranslational modifications, other proteins, polyanionic cofactors, and salt are required for the prion-like serial propagation of tauopathies.

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.
