Among various CBASS effectors, phospholipase effectors are the first to be discovered and are one of the most widespread families that sense cyclic dinucleotides to degrade cell membrane phospholipids. Here, we report that CBASS phospholipases assemble from a dimeric inactive state into active higher-order filamentous oligomers upon sensing cyclic dinucleotides. Using a combined approach of cryo-electron microscopy and X-ray crystallography, we have determined the structures of CBASS phospholipase in the inactive dimeric state, the cyclic-dinucleotide-bound active higher-order state, and the substrate-analog-bound catalytic mimicry state, thereby visualizing the complete conformational reorganization process. Complemented by functional assays of intermolecular binding, phospholipase enzymatic activity, in vitro membrane disruption, and in vivo antiphage efficiency, our work elucidates the mechanisms of assembly and activation of CBASS phospholipases.
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.
