The Yersinia entomopahaga toxin complex (YenTc) belongs to a ...ABC toxins are toxin-translocating, pore-forming proteins found in a wide range of insecticidal bacteria and some mammalian pathogens. The Yersinia entomopahaga toxin complex (YenTc) belongs to a distinct subclass of ABC toxins, defined by a divergent molecular architecture. Structural details that define their mechanism of action remain to be elucidated. Here we determine structures of the YenTc holotoxin assembly in both prepore and pore-forming configurations using cryo-EM in conjunction with Alphafold2-assisted structural modelling of flexible domains. We define the structural mechanism via which enzymatically-active chitinase subunits are incorporated, and show using phylogenetic analyses that this subclass-defining feature has evolved relatively recently. Our structures point to the existence of distinct conformational states in YenTc, which may distinguish it from other structurally-characterised ABC toxins, or represent states on a shared mechanistic trajectory. Thus, our findings enhance our understanding of the structural diversity that defines distinct ABC toxin subclasses.

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.

Jul 12, 2017. Major update of PDB

Major update of PDB

  • wwPDB released updated PDB data conforming to the new PDBx/mmCIF dictionary.
  • This is a major update changing the version number from 4 to 5, and with Remediation, in which all the entries are updated.
  • In this update, many items about electron microscopy experimental information are reorganized (e.g. em_software).
  • Now, EM Navigator and Yorodumi are based on the updated data.

Yorodumi

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.
