PubMed AbstractHuntington's disease (HD) is a fatal neurodegenerative disorder caused by a CAG repeat expansion in the () gene, with no disease-modifying therapies currently available. The precise molecular ...Huntington's disease (HD) is a fatal neurodegenerative disorder caused by a CAG repeat expansion in the () gene, with no disease-modifying therapies currently available. The precise molecular function of the HTT protein is unclear, and the lack of selective chemical tools has limited functional studies. We have identified and characterized macrocyclic peptide binders targeting HTT. These binders exhibit low-nanomolar affinity and engage distinct HTT and HTT-HAP40 interfaces, as revealed by hydrogen-deuterium exchange mass spectrometry and cryo-electron microscopy. Chemoproteomics confirmed selective binding in cell extracts from wildtype but not HTT-null cell lines. HAP40 consistently and stoichiometrically co-purified with HTT across cell lines, including with HTT variants containing different CAG repeat lengths, highlighting the broad presence of the HTT-HAP40 complex.

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.
