Title: Structural basis for LMBD1-dependent trafficking and cobalamin export of ABCD4.
Authors: Qiwei Liu / Xingfan Li / Yingjie Wu / Kai Zheng / Mi Zhou / Tao Long /
Abstract: Correct trafficking of lysosomal transporters is essential for intracellular homeostasis. While most lysosomal membrane proteins are directed to the lysosome via sorting motifs, the cobalamin ...Correct trafficking of lysosomal transporters is essential for intracellular homeostasis. While most lysosomal membrane proteins are directed to the lysosome via sorting motifs, the cobalamin exporter ABCD4 is distinct, instead relying on LMBD1 as a dedicated chaperone for its trafficking. Dysfunction of either protein causes inherited cobalamin metabolism disorders. Despite its physiological significance, the molecular mechanism underlying this chaperone-dependent trafficking remains unclear. Here, we report the cryo-EM structures of ABCD4 complex with LMBD1 in the lumen-open, substrate-bound and cytosol-open states. LMBD1 contains nine transmembrane-helices (TMs) and a cytosolic domain, both of which engage ABCD4. Cell imaging shows that disruption of these interactions impairs the trafficking of ABCD4 to lysosomes. Structural and biochemical analyses provide insights into cobalamin recognition and reveal conformational states associated with the proposed cobalamin transport cycle. These findings provide molecular insights into cobalamin metabolism and illustrate a chaperone-assisted mechanism that supports proper trafficking of a lysosomal transporter.

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.
