Traditional antibody discovery methods are labor-intensive, limiting scalability and high-throughput analysis. Here, we improved upon our streamlined approach combining structural analysis and bioinformatics to infer heavy and light chain sequences from cryo-EM (cryo-electron microscopy) maps of serum-derived polyclonal antibodies (pAbs) bound to antigens. Using ModelAngelo, an automated structure-building tool, we accelerated pAb sequence determination and identified sequence matches in B cell repertoires via ModelAngelo-derived hidden Markov models (HMMs) associated with pAb structures. Benchmarking against results from a nonhuman primate HIV vaccine trial, our pipeline reduced analysis time from weeks to under a day with higher precision. Validation with murine immune sera from influenza vaccination revealed multiple protective antibodies. This workflow enhances antibody discovery, enabling faster, more accurate mapping of polyclonal responses with broad applications in vaccine development and therapeutic antibody discovery.

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.
