Abstract: is a tick-borne intracellular apicomplexan parasite responsible for diseases ranging from mild to fatal, with a broadening geographic distribution. Due to the complex life cycle of species, their ... is a tick-borne intracellular apicomplexan parasite responsible for diseases ranging from mild to fatal, with a broadening geographic distribution. Due to the complex life cycle of species, their survival depends on the precise control of gene expression, which is primarily regulated by epigenetic, transcriptional, and post-transcriptional mechanisms. High-resolution structural information on key components of the translation machinery, such as ribosomes, could aid in the development of antiparasitic drugs. Here, we report cryo-EM ribosome structures (2.6 Å) from the tick-borne apicomplexan pathogen , showing associated tRNAs, an mRNA fragment, and RACK1, a signaling scaffold crucial to translation regulation. Density map analysis displays ribosome regions at atomic resolution (1.7 Å), which, when combined with nanopore sequencing, enabled the comprehensive identification of rRNA modifications, including modifications unreported in other organisms. The new rRNA modifications localize not only to the reduced rRNA expansion segments but also to functionally essential ribosomal sites, uncovering new avenues for therapeutic intervention against babesiosis.

SoftwareName: UCSF ChimeraX
DetailsInitial docking and fitting was done in UCSF ChimeraX for the ribosomal proteins using AlphaFold2 predicted models, except for eL41; the T. gondii eL41 chain (PDB 5XXB) served as the initial model. The T. gondii PDBs 5XXU and 5XXB were also fit with UCSF ChimeraX and used for initial model building of the Babesia divergens rRNAs.

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.
