Title: Drug inhibition and substrate transport mechanisms of human VMAT2.

Abstract: Vesicular monoamine transporter 2 (VMAT2) is crucial for packaging monoamine neurotransmitters into synaptic vesicles, with their dysregulation linked to schizophrenia, mood disorders, and ...Vesicular monoamine transporter 2 (VMAT2) is crucial for packaging monoamine neurotransmitters into synaptic vesicles, with their dysregulation linked to schizophrenia, mood disorders, and Parkinson's disease. Tetrabenazine (TBZ) and valbenazine (VBZ), both FDA-approved VMAT2 inhibitors, are employed to treat chorea and tardive dyskinesia (TD). Our study presents the structures of VMAT2 bound to substrates serotonin (5-HT) and dopamine (DA), as well as the inhibitors TBZ and VBZ. Utilizing cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM), mutagenesis functional assays, and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, we elucidate the mechanisms of substrate transport and drug inhibition. Our MD simulations indicate potential binding poses of substrate (5-HT) in both cytosol-facing and lumen-facing states, emphasizing the significance of protonation of key acidic residues for substrate release. We demonstrate that TBZ locks VMAT2 in a lumen-facing occluded state, while VBZ stabilizes it in a lumen-facing conformation. These insights enhance our understanding of VMAT2 function and provide valuable insights for the development of novel therapeutic strategies for psychiatric disorders.

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.
