The α-antitrypsin Z variant self-assembles into polymer chains that deposit within hepatocytes, predisposing to liver disease. Here, the 4.0Å subunit structure of polymers isolated directly from human liver tissue has been determined using cryoelectron microscopy. Challenges of flexibility, small subunit size, heterogeneous length, and preferred orientations were mitigated using antibody Fab domains and sample preparation strategies. This structure demonstrates that the formation of polymers in vivo involves self-incorporation of an exposed structural element (the reactive center loop) as an additional β-strand into the central β-sheet of α-antitrypsin and displacement of a C-terminal region from one subunit with incorporation into the next. Unlike amyloid aggregation, this well-folded structure partially recapitulates a conformation adopted during normal function of the protein. These perturbations to the constituent α-antitrypsin subunits of human tissue-derived polymers are consistent with a pronounced stability, their tendency toward long-chain forms, the ability of a subset to undergo canonical secretion, and the action of a class of small molecules that block polymerization in vivo.

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.
