Title: Cryo-EM structures of GPR75 reveal an occluded orthosteric pocket challenging conventional drug discovery paradigms for an anti-obesity target.

Abstract: The global obesity epidemic, affecting over 650 million adults, demands innovative therapeutics. GPR75 has emerged as a promising anti-obesity target, with genetic evidence linking loss-of-function ...The global obesity epidemic, affecting over 650 million adults, demands innovative therapeutics. GPR75 has emerged as a promising anti-obesity target, with genetic evidence linking loss-of-function variants to protection against obesity and type 2 diabetes. However, structural insights have remained elusive due to GPR75's inherent expression and stabilization challenges. Here we present the cryo-EM structures of human GPR75 in apo and Gq-coupled states, achieved through advanced stabilization techniques including NanoBiT and molecular glue approaches. Our structures reveal unique architectural features: a completely collapsed extracellular domain eliminates the traditional orthosteric binding pocket, raising critical questions about previously reported small molecule ligands. GPR75 assumes active-like conformation in both apo and G protein complexed structures through unique molecular switches-the canonical DRY motif is replaced by HRL, abolishing the ionic lock, while a distinctive Lys134-Asp210 salt bridge stabilizes the active conformation without ligand binding. This dramatic structural divergence from conventional GPCRs necessitates alternative therapeutic strategies targeting allosteric sites or protein-protein interactions rather than orthosteric pockets. Our findings establish a crucial structural framework for developing next-generation anti-obesity therapeutics.

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.

Major update of PDB

  • wwPDB released updated PDB data conforming to the new PDBx/mmCIF dictionary.
  • This is a major update changing the version number from 4 to 5, and with Remediation, in which all the entries are updated.
  • In this update, many items about electron microscopy experimental information are reorganized (e.g. em_software).
  • Now, EM Navigator and Yorodumi are based on the updated data.

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.
