Abstract: Taste is a key element for food palatability and is strongly influenced by the five basic tastes and other taste sensations, such as fatty orosensation, and koku perception, which indicates taste ...Taste is a key element for food palatability and is strongly influenced by the five basic tastes and other taste sensations, such as fatty orosensation, and koku perception, which indicates taste complexity, mouthfulness and lastingness. This study focuses on the taste modifier γ-glutamyl-valyl-glycine (γ-EVG), a potent kokumi substance that enhances taste and koku perception by modulating the calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR). We used cryo-electron microscopy to determine the structure of the CaSR/γ-EVG complex at a resolution of 3.55 Å. Structural analysis revealed important interactions between γ-EVG and the CaSR, involving key residues, such as Pro39, Phe42, Arg66, Ser147, and Glu297. Mutagenesis experiments demonstrated the importance of these residues in peptide binding. Each γ-EVG residue contributed to its binding to the orthosteric ligand binding site of the CaSR. These findings elucidate the molecular basis of kokumi peptide recognition by the CaSR and contribute to a better understanding of positive allosteric modulators of the CaSR. In addition, this research provides valuable insights into the functionality of class C G-protein-coupled receptors in taste perception, potentially informing the development of new taste modifiers and advancing the field of food science.

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.
