The 30-nm chromatin fibers, a central-level structure bridging nucleosomal arrays to higher-order organizations, function as the first level of transcriptional dormant chromatin. The dynamics of 30-nm chromatin fiber play a crucial role in biological processes related to DNA. Here, we report a 3.6-angstrom resolution cryogenic electron microscopy structure of H5-bound dodecanucleosome, i.e., the chromatin fiber reconstituted in the presence of linker histone H5, which shows a two-start left-handed double helical structure twisted by tetranucleosomal units. An atomic structural model of the H5-bound chromatin fiber, including an intact chromatosome, is built, which provides structural details of the full-length linker histone H5, including its N-terminal domain and an HMG-motif-like C-terminal domain. The chromatosome structure shows that H5 binds the nucleosome off-dyad through a three-contact mode in the chromatin fiber. More importantly, the H5-chromatin structure provides a fine molecular basis for the intra-tetranucleosomal and inter-tetranucleosomal interactions. In addition, we systematically validated the physiological functions and structural characteristics of the tetranucleosomal unit through a series of genetic and genomic studies in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and in vitro biophysical experiments. Furthermore, our structure reveals that multiple structural asymmetries of histone tails confer a polarity to the chromatin fiber. These findings provide structural and mechanistic insights into how a nucleosomal array folds into a higher-order chromatin fiber with a polarity in vitro and in vivo.
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.
