Histone acetylation is considered to enhance ...The N-terminal tails of histones protrude from the nucleosome core and are target sites for histone modifications, such as acetylation and methylation. Histone acetylation is considered to enhance transcription in chromatin. However, the contribution of the histone N-terminal tail to the nucleosome transcription by RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) has not been clarified. In the present study, we reconstituted nucleosomes lacking the N-terminal tail of each histone, H2A, H2B, H3 or H4, and performed RNAPII transcription assays. We found that the N-terminal tail of H3, but not H2A, H2B and H4, functions in RNAPII pausing at the SHL(-5) position of the nucleosome. Consistently, the RNAPII transcription assay also revealed that the nucleosome containing N-terminally acetylated H3 drastically alleviates RNAPII pausing at the SHL(-5) position. In addition, the H3 acetylated nucleosome produced increased amounts of the run-off transcript. These results provide important evidence that the H3 N-terminal tail plays a role in RNAPII pausing at the SHL(-5) position of the nucleosome, and its acetylation directly alleviates this nucleosome barrier.

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.
