Abstract: Western equine encephalitis virus (WEEV) is an arbovirus that historically caused large outbreaks of encephalitis throughout the Americas. WEEV binds protocadherin 10 (PCDH10) as a receptor, and ...Western equine encephalitis virus (WEEV) is an arbovirus that historically caused large outbreaks of encephalitis throughout the Americas. WEEV binds protocadherin 10 (PCDH10) as a receptor, and highly virulent ancestral WEEV strains also bind low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR)-related proteins. As WEEV declined as a human pathogen in North America over the past century, isolates have lost the ability to bind mammalian receptors while still recognizing avian receptors. To explain shifts in receptor dependencies and assess the risk of WEEV re-emergence, we determined cryoelectron microscopy structures of WEEV bound to human PCDH10, avian PCDH10, and human very-low-density lipoprotein receptor (VLDLR). We show that one to three E2 glycoprotein substitutions are sufficient for a nonpathogenic strain to regain the ability to bind mammalian receptors. A soluble VLDLR fragment protects mice from lethal challenge by a virulent ancestral WEEV strain. Because WEEV recently re-emerged in South America after decades of inactivity, our findings have important implications for outbreak preparedness.

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.
