Title: Structural insights into the diverse actions of magnesium on NMDA receptors.
Authors: Xuejing Huang / Xiaole Sun / Qinrui Wang / Jilin Zhang / Han Wen / Wan-Jin Chen / Shujia Zhu /
Abstract: Magnesium (Mg) is a key regulatory ion of N-methyl-ᴅ-aspartate (NMDA) receptors, including conferring them to function as coincidence detectors for excitatory synaptic transmission. However, the ...Magnesium (Mg) is a key regulatory ion of N-methyl-ᴅ-aspartate (NMDA) receptors, including conferring them to function as coincidence detectors for excitatory synaptic transmission. However, the structural basis underlying the Mg action on NMDA receptors remains unclear. Here, we report the cryo-EM structures of GluN1-N2B receptors and identify three distinct Mg-binding pockets. Specifically, site Ⅰ is located at the selectivity filter where an asparagine ring forms coordination bonds with Mg and is responsible for the voltage-dependent block. Sites Ⅱ and Ⅲ are located at the N-terminal domain (NTD) of the GluN2B subunit and involved in the allosteric potentiation and inhibition, respectively. Site Ⅱ consists of three acidic residues, and the combination of three mutations abolishes the GluN2B-specific Mg potentiation, while site Ⅲ overlaps with the Zn pocket, and mutations here significantly reduce the inhibition. Our study enhances the understanding of multifaceted roles of Mg in NMDA receptors and synaptic plasticity.

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.
