This self-assembling proteinaceous organelle uses a polyhedral shell constructed by hundreds of shell protein paralogs to encapsulate the key CO2-fixing enzymes Rubisco and carbonic anhydrase. Deciphering the precise arrangement and structural organization of Rubisco enzymes within carboxysomes is crucial for understanding carboxysome formation and overall functionality. Here, we employed cryoelectron tomography and subtomogram averaging to delineate the 3D packaging of Rubiscos within β-carboxysomes in the freshwater cyanobacterium Synechococcus elongatus PCC7942 grown under low light. Our results revealed that Rubiscos are arranged in multiple concentric layers parallel to the shell within the β-carboxysome lumen. We also detected Rubisco binding with the scaffolding protein CcmM in β-carboxysomes, which is instrumental for Rubisco encapsulation and β-carboxysome assembly. Using Quantification conCATamer-based quantitative MS, we determined the absolute stoichiometric composition of the entire β-carboxysome. This study provides insights into the assembly principles and structural variation of β-carboxysomes, which will aid in the rational design and repurposing of carboxysome nanostructures for diverse bioengineering 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.
