Title: Cryo-EM structure of the fully-loaded asymmetric anthrax lethal toxin in its heptameric pre-pore state.

Abstract: Anthrax toxin is the major virulence factor secreted by Bacillus anthracis, causing high mortality in humans and other mammals. It consists of a membrane translocase, known as protective antigen (PA) ...Anthrax toxin is the major virulence factor secreted by Bacillus anthracis, causing high mortality in humans and other mammals. It consists of a membrane translocase, known as protective antigen (PA), that catalyzes the unfolding of its cytotoxic substrates lethal factor (LF) and edema factor (EF), followed by translocation into the host cell. Substrate recruitment to the heptameric PA pre-pore and subsequent translocation, however, are not well understood. Here, we report three high-resolution cryo-EM structures of the fully-loaded anthrax lethal toxin in its heptameric pre-pore state, which differ in the position and conformation of LFs. The structures reveal that three LFs interact with the heptameric PA and upon binding change their conformation to form a continuous chain of head-to-tail interactions. As a result of the underlying symmetry mismatch, one LF binding site in PA remains unoccupied. Whereas one LF directly interacts with a part of PA called α-clamp, the others do not interact with this region, indicating an intermediate state between toxin assembly and translocation. Interestingly, the interaction of the N-terminal domain with the α-clamp correlates with a higher flexibility in the C-terminal domain of the protein. Based on our data, we propose a model for toxin assembly, in which the relative position of the N-terminal α-helices in the three LFs determines which factor is translocated first.

1Fully-loaded anthrax lethal toxin in its heptameric pre-pore state and PA7LF(2+1A) arrangementCOMPLEXHeptameric pre-pores of proteolytically-acitivated protective antigen were loaded with excess of LFs to create the PA7LF3 complexes. The LFs form a continuous chain of head-to-tail interactions. In the PA7LF(2+1A) arrangement, the third LF binds with its N-terminal domain to the C-terminal region of the 2nd LF.all0MULTIPLE SOURCES

From this model, chain J was fitted into the density corresponding to the third LF, located adjacent to the second LF. For the entire model a restrained refinement in phenix was performed. The resulting model was further refined with a combination of phenix and coot. Unresolved regions were deleted and side chain information was removed for less well-resolved regions.

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.
