Abstract: ATTR amyloidosis is a phenotypically heterogeneous disease characterized by the pathological deposition of transthyretin in the form of amyloid fibrils into various organs. ATTR amyloidosis may ...ATTR amyloidosis is a phenotypically heterogeneous disease characterized by the pathological deposition of transthyretin in the form of amyloid fibrils into various organs. ATTR amyloidosis may result from mutations in variant (ATTRv) amyloidosis, or aging in wild-type (ATTRwt) amyloidosis. ATTRwt generally manifests as cardiomyopathy, whereas ATTRv may present as polyneuropathy, cardiomyopathy, or mixed, in combination with many other symptoms deriving from multisystem organ involvement. Over 220 different mutational variants of transthyretin have been identified, many of them being linked to specific disease symptoms. Yet, the role of these mutations in explaining differential disease manifestations remains unclear. Using cryo-electron microscopy, here we structurally characterized fibrils from the heart and the liver of an ATTRv patient carrying the V122∆ mutation, which is predominantly associated with polyneuropathy. Our results show that these fibrils are polymorphic, presenting as both single and double filaments. Our study alludes to a structural connection contributing to phenotypic variation in ATTR amyloidosis, as polymorphism in ATTR fibrils may manifest in patients with predominantly polyneuropathic phenotypes.

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.
