Abstract: Extracellular contractile injection systems (eCISs) are phage-derived nanomachines used by bacteria to deliver effectors into target cells. Well-studied examples include the Photorhabdus asymbiotica ...Extracellular contractile injection systems (eCISs) are phage-derived nanomachines used by bacteria to deliver effectors into target cells. Well-studied examples include the Photorhabdus asymbiotica virulence cassettes and the antifeeding prophage from Serratia entomophila, which have been engineered for heterologous cargo delivery. Recent genomic analyses identified eCIS gene clusters in the opportunistic human pathogen Salmonella enterica subspecies salamae, but their structure, function, and biotechnological potential remain unexplored. Here, we report a high-resolution cryo-electron microscopy structure of the S. enterica eCIS. Our atomic models reveal a distinctive sheath architecture, an expansive cage-like shell around a central spike, and an associated integral membrane protein. We identify a putative effector encoded within the operon exhibiting mild periplasmic toxicity and provide evidence that the S. enterica eCIS deviates from canonical eCISs by interacting with the inner membrane. Guided by these structural features, we uncover, to the best of our knowledge, a previously unannotated cluster of contractile injection systems (CISs). Together, our findings expand the known diversity of CISs' structures and functions, and lay the groundwork for engineering customisable protein delivery platforms.

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.
