Abstract: Epstein-Barr Nuclear Antigen 1 (EBNA1) is essential for the episomal maintenance and DNA replication of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) in latently infected cells and acts through binding to The minimal ...Epstein-Barr Nuclear Antigen 1 (EBNA1) is essential for the episomal maintenance and DNA replication of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) in latently infected cells and acts through binding to The minimal replicative unit of (½DS) contains four EBNA1 binding sites flanked by single telomeric nonamers that recruit shelterin proteins TRF2 and Rap1, but the structural basis for host-factor engagement is not known. Here, we integrate cryo-electron microscopy, zero-length cross-linking mass spectrometry, Alphafold3 modeling, and biochemical binding assays to define the complex formed by EBNA1-TRF2-Rap1 assembly on the ½DS. We find that a highly dynamic complex is formed, with the TRF2 homodimerization domain (TRFH) flexibly interacting with EBNA1 on the surface opposite the DNA-binding region, where there is a large acidic patch in EBNA1 that is unique amongst the herpesvirus episome maintenance proteins. Mutagenesis of this acidic patch abolishes TRFH binding and dependent plasmid replication. These findings identify a previously uncharacterized acidic patch docking surface on EBNA1 essential for coordinating TRF2-Rap1 at and provide new insights into both EBV and telomere DNA replication.

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.
