PubMed AbstractVolume-regulated anion channels (VRACs) are multimeric proteins composed of different paralogs of the LRRC8 family. They are activated in response to hypotonic swelling, but little is known about ...Volume-regulated anion channels (VRACs) are multimeric proteins composed of different paralogs of the LRRC8 family. They are activated in response to hypotonic swelling, but little is known about their specific functions. We studied two human individuals with the same congenital syndrome affecting blood vessels, brain, eyes, and bones. The LRRC8C gene harbored de novo variants in both patients, located in a region of the gene encoding the boundary between the pore and a cytoplasmic domain, which is depleted of sequence variations in control subjects. When studied by cryo-EM, both LRRC8C mutant proteins assembled as their wild-type counterparts, but showed increased flexibility, suggesting a destabilization of subunit interactions. When co-expressed with the obligatory LRRC8A subunit, the mutants exhibited enhanced activation, resulting in channel activity even at isotonic conditions in which wild-type channels are closed. We conclude that structural perturbations of LRRC8C impair channel gating and constitute the mechanistic basis of the dominant gain-of-function effect of these pathogenic variants. The pleiotropic phenotype of this novel clinical entity associated with monoallelic LRRC8C variants indicates the fundamental roles of VRACs in different tissues and organs.

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.
