Abstract: Rhodopsin, the most intensively studied G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR), is activated by light-induced isomerization of its chromophore 11--retinal. This study employed cryogenic electron ...Rhodopsin, the most intensively studied G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR), is activated by light-induced isomerization of its chromophore 11--retinal. This study employed cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM) to investigate rhodopsin structure using a megabody (Mb7) as a negative allosteric modulator. Three distinct cryo-EM structures were solved: ground-state rhodopsin, photoactivated rhodopsin, and apo-rhodopsin, all in complex with Mb7. Photoactivated rhodopsin and apo-rhodopsin, both in complex with Mb7, maintain a conformation remarkably similar to ground-state rhodopsin rather than adopting a Meta-II-like conformation. Structural elements, including the conserved residues of the NPxxY motif and the ionic lock, remain in positions corresponding to inactive rhodopsin. The megabody forms extensive interactions with rhodopsin's extracellular loop 2, N terminus, and glycans. The findings demonstrate that Mb7 stabilizes photoactivated rhodopsin in a Meta-I-like conformation, preventing progression to the active Meta-II state through specific immobilization of the extracellular domain. This work establishes a foundation for cryo-EM-guided discovery of ligands modulating rhodopsin.

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.
