Title: pH-induced conformational changes and inhibition of the Lassa virus spike complex.

Abstract: Lassa virus (LASV) is a devastating human pathogen with no vaccines and limited therapeutics. The LASV class-I spike complex engages target cells via binding its primary host receptor, matriglycan, ...Lassa virus (LASV) is a devastating human pathogen with no vaccines and limited therapeutics. The LASV class-I spike complex engages target cells via binding its primary host receptor, matriglycan, followed by macropinocytosis and binding of its secondary receptor, lysosomal-associated membrane protein 1 (LAMP1), to trigger virus fusion. This process occurs across multiple pH-dependent steps, but the molecular events remain largely unknown. Through high-resolution structures, we study the pH-induced conformational changes of the spike preceding membrane fusion. We reveal pH-sensitive metal coordination sites that control the integrity of the spike's native state, elucidate a reorganization of the spike's transmembrane region, and provide a mechanism for dissociation from its primary receptor. Using the entry inhibitor ARN-75039, we validate our findings and establish the molecular basis for the binding and function of this investigational drug. These data define the molecular basis for the cell entry of LASV and will promote efforts in combating this virus and potentially related viral pathogens.

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.

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.
