Here, we show that AcrVIB1 from ...Anti-CRISPR proteins (Acrs) inhibit CRISPR-Cas immune defenses, with almost all known Acrs acting on the Cas nuclease-CRISPR (cr)RNA ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complex. Here, we show that AcrVIB1 from Riemerella anatipestifer, the only known Acr against Cas13b, principally acts upstream of RNP complex formation by promoting unproductive crRNA binding followed by crRNA degradation. AcrVIB1 tightly binds to Cas13b but not to the Cas13b-crRNA complex, resulting in enhanced rather than blocked crRNA binding. However, the more tightly bound crRNA does not undergo processing and fails to activate collateral RNA cleavage even with target RNA. The bound crRNA is also accessible to RNases, leading to crRNA turnover in vivo even in the presence of Cas13b. Finally, cryoelectron microscopy (cryo-EM) structures reveal that AcrVIB1 binds a helical domain of Cas13b responsible for securing the crRNA, keeping the domain untethered. These findings reveal an Acr that converts an effector nuclease into a crRNA sink to suppress CRISPR-Cas defense.

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.
