Journal: bioRxiv / Year: 2024 Title: Real-space heterogeneous reconstruction, refinement, and disentanglement of CryoEM conformational states with HetSIREN.

However, the image's signal-to-noise ratio is low, and some form of classification is usually performed at the image processing level to allow structural modeling. Classical classification methods imply the existence of a discrete number of structural conformations. However, new heterogeneity algorithms introduce a novel reconstruction paradigm, where every state is represented by a lower number of particles, potentially just one, allowing the estimation of conformational landscapes representing the different structural states a biomolecule explores. In this work, we present a novel deep learning-based method called HetSIREN. HetSIREN can fully reconstruct or refine a CryoEM volume in real space based on the structural information summarized in a conformational latent space. The unique characteristics that set HetSIREN apart start with the definition of the approach as a real space-based only method, a fact that allows spatially focused analysis, but also the introduction of a novel network architecture specifically designed to make use of meta-sinusoidal activations, with proven high analytics capacities. Continuing with innovations, HetSIREN can also refine the pose parameters of the images at the same time that it conditions the network with prior information/constraints on the maps, such as Total Variation and denoising, ultimately yielding cleaner volumes with high-quality structural features. Finally, but very importantly, HetSIREN addresses one of the most confusing issues in heterogeneity analysis, as it is the fact that real structural heterogeneity estimation is entangled with pose estimation (and to a lesser extent with CTF estimation), in this way, HetSIREN introduces a novel encoding architecture able to decouple pose and CTF information from the conformational landscape, resulting in more accurate and interpretable conformational latent spaces. We present results on computer-simulated data, public data from EMPIAR, and data from experimental systems currently being studied in our laboratories. An important finding is the sensitivity of the structure and dynamics of the SARS-CoV-2 Spike protein on the storage temperature.
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.
