NKCC1 is important for regulating cell volume, hearing, blood pressure, and regulation of hyperpolarizing GABAergic and glycinergic signaling in the central nervous system. Here, we present a 2.6 Å resolution cryo-electron microscopy structure of human NKCC1 in the substrate-loaded (Na , K , and 2 Cl ) and occluded, inward-facing state that has also been observed for the SLC6-type transporters MhsT and LeuT. Cl binding at the Cl1 site together with the nearby K ion provides a crucial bridge between the LeuT-fold scaffold and bundle domains. Cl -ion binding at the Cl2 site seems to undertake a structural role similar to conserved glutamate of SLC6 transporters and may allow for Cl -sensitive regulation of transport. Supported by functional studies in mammalian cells and computational simulations, we describe a putative Na release pathway along transmembrane helix 5 coupled to the Cl2 site. The results provide insight into the structure-function relationship of NKCC1 with broader implications for other SLC12 family members.

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.
