PubMed AbstractSingle-particle cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM) enables reconstruction of atomic-resolution 3D maps of proteins by visualizing thousands to millions of purified protein particles embedded in ...Single-particle cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM) enables reconstruction of atomic-resolution 3D maps of proteins by visualizing thousands to millions of purified protein particles embedded in vitreous ice. This corresponds to picograms of purified protein, which can potentially be isolated from a few thousand cells. Hence, cryo-EM holds the potential of a very sensitive analytical method for delivering high-resolution protein structure as a readout. In practice, millions of times more starting biological material is required to prepare cryo-EM grids. Here we show that using a micro isolation (MISO) method, which combines microfluidics-based protein purification with cryo-EM grid preparation, cryo-EM structures of soluble bacterial and eukaryotic membrane proteins can be solved starting from less than 1 µg of a target protein and progressing from cells to cryo-EM grids within a few hours. This scales down the amount of starting biological material hundreds to thousands of times, opening possibilities for the structural characterization of hitherto inaccessible proteins.

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.
