While activation of CFTR is vital to treating cystic fibrosis, selective inhibition of CFTR is a potential therapeutic strategy for secretory diarrhea and autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease. Although several CFTR inhibitors have been developed by high-throughput screening, their modes of action remain elusive. In this study, we determined the structure of CFTR in complex with the inhibitor CFTR-172 to an overall resolution of 2.7 Å by cryogenic electron microscopy. We observe that CFTR-172 binds inside the pore near transmembrane helix 8, a critical structural element that links adenosine triphosphate hydrolysis with channel gating. Binding of CFTR-172 stabilizes a conformation in which the chloride selectivity filter is collapsed, and the pore is blocked from the extracellular side of the membrane. Single-molecule fluorescence resonance energy transfer experiments indicate that CFTR-172 inhibits channel gating without compromising nucleotide-binding domain dimerization. Together, these data reconcile previous biophysical observations and provide a molecular basis for the activity of this widely used CFTR inhibitor.
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.
