Title: Structure of a stripped-down and tuned-up far-red phycobilisome.

Abstract: A diverse subset of cyanobacteria can transiently modify their photosynthetic machinery during far-red light photoacclimation to drive photosynthesis with less energetic photons (700 nm-800 nm). ...A diverse subset of cyanobacteria can transiently modify their photosynthetic machinery during far-red light photoacclimation to drive photosynthesis with less energetic photons (700 nm-800 nm). To achieve this, all the main light-driven components of the photosynthetic apparatus, including their allophycocyanin antenna, are replaced with red-shifted paralogues. Recent studies based on the structure of an incomplete complex provided some insights into the tuning of the far-red phycobiliproteins. Here, we solved the structure of the intact bicylindrical allophycocyanin complex from the cyanobacterium Chroococcidiopsis thermalis PCC 7203 at a resolution of 2.51 Å determined by Cryo-electron microscopy single particle analysis. A comparison between conserved structural features in far-red and white light allophycocyanin cores provides insight on the evolutionary adaptations needed to optimize excitation energy transfer in the far-red light adapted photosynthetic apparatus. The reduction in antenna size in far-red photosynthesis suggests a need to optimize membrane packing to increase the number of photosystems and tune the ratio between chlorophyll f molecules and bilin pigments, while the wider spread in the absorption range of the bilins suggests faster and more efficient excitation energy transfer to far-red Photosystem II by limiting backflow of excitation from the reaction centres to the far-red bilin pigments.

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.

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.
