Title: Structural insights into Cas9-mediated prespacer selection in CRISPR-Cas adaptation.
Authors: Ugne Gaizauskaite / Giedre Tamulaitiene / Arunas Silanskas / Giedrius Gasiunas / Virginijus Siksnys / Giedrius Sasnauskas
Abstract: During CRISPR-Cas adaptation, prokaryotic cells become immunized by the insertion of foreign DNA fragments, termed spacers, into the host genome to serve as templates for RNA-guided immunity. Spacer ...During CRISPR-Cas adaptation, prokaryotic cells become immunized by the insertion of foreign DNA fragments, termed spacers, into the host genome to serve as templates for RNA-guided immunity. Spacer acquisition relies on the Cas1-Cas2 integrase and accessory proteins, which select DNA sequences flanked by the protospacer adjacent motif (PAM) and insert them into the CRISPR array. It has been shown that in type II-A systems, selection of PAM-proximal prespacers is mediated by the effector nuclease Cas9, which forms a "supercomplex" with the Cas1-Cas2 integrase and the Csn2 protein. Here, we present cryo-electron microscopy structures of the Streptococcus thermophilus type II-A prespacer selection supercomplex in the DNA-scanning and two distinct PAM-bound configurations, providing insights into the mechanism of Cas9-mediated prespacer selection in type II-A CRISPR-Cas systems. Repurposing Cas9 by the CRISPR adaptation machinery for prespacer selection, as characterized here, demonstrates Cas9 plasticity and expands our knowledge of Cas9 biology.

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.

Thousand views of thousand structures

  • Yorodumi is a browser for structure data from EMDB, PDB, SASBDB, etc.
  • This page is also the successor to EM Navigator detail page, and also detail information page/front-end page for Omokage search.
  • The word "yorodu" (or yorozu) is an old Japanese word meaning "ten thousand". "mi" (miru) is to see.
