SpbK is a Toll/interleukin-1 receptor (TIR) domain-containing antiphage defence protein from Bacillus subtilis that provides protection against the temperate phage SPβ via abortive infection. Here we structurally characterise SpbK and its interaction with the SPβ protein YonE. We demonstrate that SpbK is an NADase that produces both ADP-ribose (ADPR) and canonical cyclic ADPR with a N1-glycosidic bond (cADPR, also referred to as N1-cADPR). Combining cryo-EM, in silico predictions, site-directed mutagenesis, and phage infection assays, we show that formation of two-stranded head-to-tail assemblies of SpbK TIR domains is required for both NADase activity and antiphage defence. We also demonstrate that YonE is a dodecameric portal protein that activates the NADase function of SpbK by facilitating TIR domain clustering. Collectively, our results provide insight into how bacterial TIR NADases recognise phage infection.

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.
