We ...The insertion of fusion proteins has enabled the crystallization of a wide range of G-protein-coupled receptors. Here, we adapted this engineering strategy to cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM). We inserted the soluble protein AmpC β-lactamase into the third intracellular loop (ICL3) of ultra-thermostable β1-adrenoceptor (β1AR) via chimeric helix fusions. Biochemical and biophysical characterization showed that the resulting fusion protein after expression, solubilization and purification was monodisperse and able to bind the known β1AR weak partial agonist cyanopindolol, and the antagonist propranolol. The protein particles comprised sufficient mass and discernable structural features to elucidate its cryo-EM structure in complex with cyanopindolol without any natural (G-proteins, arrestins) or artificial (Nanobodies, DARPins) binding partners, to an overall resolution of 4.2 Å. The seven-helix architecture and helix eight, as well as both GPCR - AmpC β-lactamase connections are clearly resolved. β1AR is in an inactive-like conformation. 3D variability analysis revealed significant flexibility between the two protein domains and within the GPCR helices. The map contains clear density for the cyanopindolol. The fusion protein geometry is expected to be compatible with a subset of other class A GPCRs exhibiting suitable architecture. For receptors meeting these geometric requirements, this approach may facilitate cryo-EM structure determination of GPCR-ligand complexes in an inactive-like state. In addition, it could support structural studies of GPCRs in the absence of ligands.

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.
