Abstract: The RNA-targeting type VI CRISPR-Cas effector complexes are widely used in biotechnology applications such as gene knockdown, RNA editing, and molecular diagnostics. Compared with Cas13a from ...The RNA-targeting type VI CRISPR-Cas effector complexes are widely used in biotechnology applications such as gene knockdown, RNA editing, and molecular diagnostics. Compared with Cas13a from mesophilic organisms, a newly discovered Cas13a from thermophilic bacteria Thermoclostridium caenicola (TccCas13a) shows low sequence similarity, high thermostability, and lacks pre-crRNA processing activity. The thermostability of TccCas13a has been harnessed to make a sensitive and robust tool for nucleic acid detection. Here we present the structures of TccCas13a-crRNA binary complex at 2.8 Å, and TccCas13a at 3.5 Å. Although TccCas13a shares a similarly bilobed architecture with other mesophilic organism-derived Cas13a proteins, TccCas13a displayed distinct structure features. Specifically, it holds a long crRNA 5'-flank, forming extensive polar contacts with Helical-1 and HEPN2 domains. The detailed analysis of the interaction between crRNA 5'-flank and TccCas13a suggested lack of suitable nucleophile to attack the 2'-OH of crRNA 5'-flank may explain why TccCas13a fails to cleave pre-crRNA. The stem-loop segment of crRNA spacer toggles between double-stranded and single-stranded conformational states, suggesting a potential safeguard mechanism for target recognition. Superimposition of the structures of TccCas13a and TccCas13a-crRNA revealed several conformational changes required for crRNA loading, including dramatic movement of Helical-2 domain. Collectively, these structural insights expand our understanding into type VI CRISPR-Cas effectors, and would facilitate the development of TccCas13a-based applications.

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.
