The BAM is structurally conserved, ...The Gram-negative β-barrel assembly machinery (BAM) complex catalyses the folding and membrane insertion of newly synthesized β-barrel outer membrane proteins. The BAM is structurally conserved, but most studies have focused on Gammaproteobacteria. Here, using single-particle cryogenic electron microscopy, quantitative proteomics and functional assays, we show that the BAM complex is distinct within the Bacteroidota. Cryogenic electron microscopy structures of BAM complexes from the human gut symbiont Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron (3.3 Å) and the human oral pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis (3.2 Å) show similar, seven-component complexes of ~325 kDa. The complexes are mostly extracellular and comprise canonical BamA and BamD; an integral, essential outer membrane protein, BamG, that associates with BamA; and four surface-exposed lipoproteins: BamH-K. Absent from the BAM in Pseudomonadota, BamG-K form a large, extracellular dome that may confer additional functionality to enable the folding and assembly of β-barrel-surface-exposed lipoprotein complexes that are a hallmark of the Bacteroidota. Our findings develop our understanding of fundamental biological processes in an important bacterial phylum.

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.
