Abstract: Legionella pneumophila employs effectors including kinases, phosphoryl-AMPylases, ATPases, etc. to exploit host ATP for infection. Ceg14, a member of the S-HxxxE family, modulates host-cell energy ...Legionella pneumophila employs effectors including kinases, phosphoryl-AMPylases, ATPases, etc. to exploit host ATP for infection. Ceg14, a member of the S-HxxxE family, modulates host-cell energy levels in concert with host actin and the metaeffector AnkJ: actin activates while AnkJ inhibits Ceg14 ATPase activity. However, the molecular basis of this regulation remains unclear. Here we present Cryo-EM structures of Ceg14-actin, Ceg14-AnkJ, and Ceg14-actin-AnkJ complexes at 2.89 Å, 2.93 Å, and 2.52 Å, respectively. Actin binds to the C-terminal α-helix of the Ceg14 catalytic domain (CD), inducing rearrangement of its N-terminal domain (NTD) and reconfiguration of the flexible Lid domain. Surprisingly, AnkJ binds to the surface opposite the catalytic pocket rather than occupying the pocket. Using integrated in silico, in vitro, and in cellulo approaches, we propose a mechanism for Ceg14-mediated ATP hydrolysis. Actin binding triggers NTD rotation, driving the catalytic pocket through open, intermediate, and closed states. In the open state, H571 catalyzes ATP conversion to AMP and PPi. AnkJ binding to an allosteric site locks the intermediate state, thereby inhibiting hydrolysis. Together, our study reveals the molecular mechanism by which actin and AnkJ reciprocally regulate Ceg14 activity.

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.
