Abstract: Renal Cell Carcinomas (RCCs) depend metabolically on the trimeric sodium-coupled aspartate and glutamate transporter, SLC1A1/EAAT3; however, pharmacologically targeting SLC1A1 is challenging. We ...Renal Cell Carcinomas (RCCs) depend metabolically on the trimeric sodium-coupled aspartate and glutamate transporter, SLC1A1/EAAT3; however, pharmacologically targeting SLC1A1 is challenging. We determined a cryo-EM structure of human SLC1A1 bound to compound , a recently described SLC1A1-selective bicyclic imidazo[1,2-α]pyridine-3-amine (BIA) inhibitor. binds a membrane-embedded, allosteric pocket accessible only in the state, when SLC1A1 is unbound to substrate and sodium. Wedged between the trimerization domain and the substrate-binding transport domain, together with a cholesterol moiety from the lipid bilayer, likely prevents sodium and substrate binding, and blocks SLC1A1's elevator-like movements that are essential for transport. Mutations in this pocket abolish binding and counteract 's cytotoxicity in RCC cells, confirming on-target activity and explaining SLC1A1 selectivity. A structure-guided medicinal chemistry effort yielded two new, SLC1A1-selective BIA derivatives, PBJ1 and PBJ2, with enhanced cytotoxicity resulting from the inhibition of SLC1A1-dependent aspartate, glutamate, and cysteine metabolic pathways.

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.
