Although natural products produced by fungi and bacteria, particularly actinomycetes, have been the source of most antibiotics discovered over the past 80 years, they have fallen out of favor due to the frequent rediscovery of known drug scaffolds. The current perception is that antibiotic-producing actinomycetes have been over-mined and possess little novelty left to yield. Here, we demonstrate that by using improved fractionation approaches that enrich previously overlooked minor products, even well-studied strains of antibiotic-producing actinomycetes can provide new chemical scaffolds with unique modes of action. By fractionating a library of natural product extracts from soil bacteria, we show that Streptomyces rimosus, the source of the well-known antibiotic oxytetracycline, produces a previously overlooked cyclic depsipeptide antibiotic that we called manikomycin. Manikomycin can kill multi-drug-resistant Enterobacteriaceae and is not susceptible to resistance associated with clinically used antibiotics. Biochemical, genetic, and structural analyses reveal that manikomycin binds in the 'exit' or E site of the large subunit of the bacterial ribosome preventing the entry of the 3' end of the tRNA into the E site and effectively hindering the translocation step of protein synthesis in a sequence context-specific manner. Manikomycin is the first antibacterial agent to target the critical but underexplored E site in the large ribosomal subunit, highlighting its value as a lead for developing new antibiotics.

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.
