Abstract: Phosphorus is an essential macronutrient for plants, primarily absorbed from the soil as inorganic phosphate (Pi) through root-located Pi transporters. Despite decades of research into these ...Phosphorus is an essential macronutrient for plants, primarily absorbed from the soil as inorganic phosphate (Pi) through root-located Pi transporters. Despite decades of research into these transporters as targets for developing Pi-efficient crops, their mechanisms for Pi import remain poorly understood. Here, we present the cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) structures of the rice Pi importer OsPHT1;11 in both Pi-bound and unbound forms, characterize its conformational dynamics, and demonstrate how these dynamics contribute to its transport function. Pi is recognized through conserved residues found in plants, with its translocation facilitated by a typical alternating-access mechanism. Single-molecule fluorescence resonance energy transfer (smFRET) analyses show that this transporter undergoes dynamic conformational fluctuations, which are differentially linked to its Pi transport capability, with a predominance of extracellular open conformations favoring Pi transport, while more populated intracellular open conformations hinder it. These findings highlight key conformational determinants of transport activity and provide mechanistic insights into Pi uptake in plants.

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.

Jul 12, 2017. Major update of PDB

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.

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.
