These enzymes form homodimers through their N-terminal dimerization domains, a feature implicated in regulating their cooperative activation. Previous investigations into the activation mechanisms of PKG I isoforms have been largely influenced by structures of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA). Here, we examined PKG Iα activation by cGMP and cAMP by engineering a monomeric form that lacks N-terminal residues 1-53 (Δ53). We found that the construct exists as a monomer as assessed by whole-protein MS, size-exclusion chromatography, and small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). Reconstruction of the SAXS 3D envelope indicates that Δ53 has a similar shape to the heterodimeric RIα-C complex of PKA. Moreover, we found that the Δ53 construct is autoinhibited in its cGMP-free state and can bind to and be activated by cGMP in a manner similar to full-length PKG Iα as assessed by surface plasmon resonance (SPR) spectroscopy. However, we found that the Δ53 variant does not exhibit cooperative activation, and its cyclic nucleotide selectivity is diminished. These findings support a model in which, despite structural similarities, PKG Iα activation is distinct from that of PKA, and its cooperativity is driven by in interactions between protomers.

Feb 9, 2022. New format data for meta-information of EMDB entries
New format data for meta-information of EMDB entries
Version 3 of the EMDB header file is now the official format.
The previous official version 1.9 will be removed from the archive.
In the structure databanks used in Yorodumi, some data are registered as the other names, "COVID-19 virus" and "2019-nCoV". Here are the details of the virus and the list of structure data.
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 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.
