However, the ...Cardiolipin is a mitochondria-specific phospholipid that forms heterotypic interactions with membrane-shaping proteins and regulates the dynamic remodeling and function of mitochondria. However, the precise mechanisms through which cardiolipin influences mitochondrial morphology are not well understood. In this study, employing molecular dynamics simulations, we determined that cardiolipin molecules extensively engage with the paddle domain of mitochondrial fusion protein OPA1, which controls membrane-shaping mechanisms. Structure-function analysis confirmed the interactions between cardiolipin and two conserved motifs of OPA1 at the membrane-binding sites. We further developed a bromine-labeled cardiolipin probe to enhance cryoEM contrast and characterized the structure of OPA1 assemblies bound to the cardiolipin brominated lipid bilayers. Our images provide direct evidence of cardiolipin enrichment within the OPA1-binding leaflet. Last, we observed a decrease in membrane remodeling activity for OPA1 in lipid compositions with increasing concentrations of monolyso-cardiolipin. This suggests that the partial replacement of cardiolipin by monolyso-cardiolipin, as observed in Barth syndrome, alters the malleability of the membrane and compromises proper remodeling. Together, these data provide insights into how biological membranes regulate the mechanisms governing mitochondrial homeostasis.

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.
