Title: Conformational changes in tubulin in GMPCPP and GDP-taxol microtubules observed by cryoelectron microscopy.

Abstract: Microtubules are dynamic polymers that stochastically switch between growing and shrinking phases. Microtubule dynamics are regulated by guanosine triphosphate (GTP) hydrolysis by β-tubulin, but the ...Microtubules are dynamic polymers that stochastically switch between growing and shrinking phases. Microtubule dynamics are regulated by guanosine triphosphate (GTP) hydrolysis by β-tubulin, but the mechanism of this regulation remains elusive because high-resolution microtubule structures have only been revealed for the guanosine diphosphate (GDP) state. In this paper, we solved the cryoelectron microscopy (cryo-EM) structure of microtubule stabilized with a GTP analogue, guanylyl 5'-α,β-methylenediphosphonate (GMPCPP), at 8.8-Å resolution by developing a novel cryo-EM image reconstruction algorithm. In contrast to the crystal structures of GTP-bound tubulin relatives such as γ-tubulin and bacterial tubulins, significant changes were detected between GMPCPP and GDP-taxol microtubules at the contacts between tubulins both along the protofilament and between neighboring protofilaments, contributing to the stability of the microtubule. These findings are consistent with the structural plasticity or lattice model and suggest the structural basis not only for the regulatory mechanism of microtubule dynamics but also for the recognition of the nucleotide state of the microtubule by several microtubule-binding proteins, such as EB1 or kinesin.

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.
