SK channels are modulated by a variety of distinct modulators; however, the underlying mechanisms remain elusive. Here, we present four cryoelectron microscopy structures of the human SK2-calmodulin complex bound with apamin, UCL1684, AP30663, and CAD-1883, elucidating their distinct binding sites and regulatory mechanisms. Apamin and UCL1684 compete for a similar binding site above the selectivity filter, which is formed by the distinct S3-S4 linker of SK2. CAD-1883 glues the N-lobe of calmodulin and the S4-S5 linker of SK2, reinforcing the open state. In contrast, AP30663 resides in the central cavity of SK2, blocking ion conductance. This study reveals multiple modulation sites in SK2 and the molecular mechanisms for the inhibition and potentiation of SK channels, which could advance rational drug design targeting SK2 channel for the treatment of cardiovascular and neurological disorders.

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.
