Here, we use cryo-EM and perform steady-state kinetic studies to investigate electrostatic interactions between cytochrome (cyt.) c and the complex (C) III-IV supercomplex from Saccharomyces cerevisiae at low salinity. The kinetic studies show a sharp transition with a Hill coefficient ≥2, which together with the cryo-EM data at 2.4 Å resolution indicate multiple cyt. c molecules bound along the supercomplex surface. Negatively charged loops of CIII subunits Qcr6 and Qcr9 become structured to interact with cyt. c. In addition, the higher resolution allows us to identify water molecules in proton pathways of CIV and, to the best of our knowledge, previously unresolved cardiolipin molecules. In conclusion, the lowered electrostatic screening renders engagement of multiple cyt. c molecules that are directed by electrostatically structured CIII loops to conduct electron transfer between CIII and CIV.
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.

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.
