Abstract: Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) assembly at the surfaces-exposed leaflet of the bacterial outer membrane (OM) is mediated by the OM LPS translocon. An essential transmembrane β-barrel protein, LptD, and a ...Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) assembly at the surfaces-exposed leaflet of the bacterial outer membrane (OM) is mediated by the OM LPS translocon. An essential transmembrane β-barrel protein, LptD, and a cognate lipoprotein, LptE, translocate LPS selectively into the OM external leaflet via a poorly understood mechanism. Here, we characterize two additional translocon subunits, the lipoproteins LptM and LptY (formerly YedD). We use single-particle cryo-EM analysis, functional assays and molecular dynamics simulations to visualize the roles of LptM and LptY at the translocon holo-complex LptDEMY, uncovering their impact on LptD conformational dynamics. Whereas LptY binds and stabilizes the periplasmic LptD β-taco domain that functions as LPS receptor, LptM intercalates the lateral gate of the β-barrel domain, promoting its opening and access by LPS. Remarkably, we demonstrate a conformational switch of the LptD β-taco/β-barrel interface alternating between contracted and extended states. β-strand 1 of LptD, which defines the mobile side of the lateral gate, binds LPS and performs a stroke movement toward the external leaflet during the contracted-to-extended state transition. Our findings support a detailed mechanistic framework explaining the selective transport of LPS to the membrane external leaflet.

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.
