Many BpAbs have been developed for enhanced crosslinking to induce signal transduction or cell internalization, whereas few have been reported with smaller immunocomplexes to suppress unwanted signaling. Here, we developed a strategy to induce 1:1 immunocomplex formation to maximize antagonistic function. Various peptide linkers were introduced into the hinge regions of IgG-like agonist BpAbs against tumor necrosis factor receptor 2. Loss of crosslinking activity was observed for one BpAb, allowing the conversion of its function from an agonist to an antagonist. However, crosslinking activity was retained for another agonist, BpAb, which binds to a different epitope pair. In a combined analysis of cryo-electron microscopy and coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulations, the effect of epitope combination on the stability of 1:1 complexes was observed. These results lead to an understanding of the mechanism and design of BpAbs to adopt a 1:1-binding mode.

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.
