Here we report four cryo-EM structures with previously unresolved ligands, electrophysiology recordings, and molecular dynamics simulations to characterize binding and conformational impact of the drugs THIP (a non-opioid analgesic), CGP36742 (a phosphinic acid) and GABOB (an anticonvulsant) on a human ρ1 GABA receptor. A distinctive binding pose of THIP in ρ1 versus α4β3δ GABA receptors offers a rationale for its inverse effects on these subtypes. CGP36742 binding is similar to the canonical ρ-type inhibitor TPMPA, supporting a shared mechanism of action among phosphinic acids. Binding of GABOB is similar to GABA, but produces a mixture of partially-locked and desensitized states, likely underlying weaker agonist activity. Together, these results elucidate interactions of a ρ-type GABA receptor with therapeutic drugs, offering mechanistic insights and a basis for further pharmaceutical development.

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.
