Title: A receptor-centered approach identifies Lom as a LamB-bound superinfection exclusion factor in bacteriophage λ.
Authors: Xiaofei Ge / Zhiwei Gu / Jiawei Wang /
Abstract: Bacteriophages face intense competition within bacterial populations. Although bacteria encode diverse anti-phage mechanisms, strategies protecting virions at the host surface remain poorly ...Bacteriophages face intense competition within bacterial populations. Although bacteria encode diverse anti-phage mechanisms, strategies protecting virions at the host surface remain poorly understood. Here, we develop a receptor-centered discovery approach that captures phage proteins bound to host receptors during infection. Applying this strategy to bacteriophage λ and its outer-membrane receptor LamB, we identify Lom as a phage-encoded outer membrane protein that binds LamB. Structural, biochemical, and functional analyses show that Lom occupies the same LamB surface recognized by the receptor-binding protein gpJ, thereby reducing phage adsorption through receptor occlusion. Ribosome profiling indicates that lom is strongly expressed during late lytic growth and is also expressed during lysogeny, consistent with a role in receptor-level superinfection exclusion. Foldseek analyses identify structurally related Lom-like proteins in diverse temperate phages, raising the possibility that receptor occlusion is a more widespread strategy. These findings establish a framework for discovering receptor-level phage competition mechanisms.

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.
