Since this enzyme is exclusively found in prokaryotes, including the human pathogens and , it is a promising target for highly selective antibiotics. Korormicin A, a natural product, and a specific and potent inhibitor of Na-NQR, may become a lead compound for the relevant drug design. We previously showed that the G141A mutation in the NqrB subunit (NqrB-G141A) confers moderate resistance to korormicin A (about 100-fold). However, the efficiency of photoaffinity labeling of the mutant enzyme by a photoreactive korormicin derivative was the same as in the wild-type enzyme. Because of these apparently conflicting results, the molecular mechanism underlying the korormicin A-resistance remains elusive. In the present study, we determined the cryo-EM structure of the NqrB-G141A mutant in the presence of bound korormicin A, and compared it to the corresponding structure from the wild-type enzyme. The toxophoric moiety of korormicin A binds to the mutant enzyme similarly to how it binds to the wild type. However, the added bulk of the alanine-141 excludes the alkyl side chain from the binding cavity, resulting in a decrease in the binding affinity. In fact, isothermal titration calorimetry revealed that the binding affinity of korormicin to the NqrB-G141A mutant is significantly weaker compared to the wild-type. Altogether, we conclude that the inhibitory potency of korormicin A is weaker in the NqrB-G141A mutant due to the decrease in its binding affinity to the altered binding cavity.

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.
