A plant-specific leucine-rich repeat receptor-like kinase (LRR-RLK) CANNOT RESPOND TO DMBQ 1 (CARD1), also known as HYDROGEN-PEROXIDE-INDUCED Ca INCREASES (HPCA1), perceives both quinones and ROS, but the mechanism by which it distinguishes between these two types of signals remains unclear. Here, we determine the structure of the CARD1 ectodomain and uncover its unique features. Structural studies, coupled with genetics and biochemical analysis, demonstrate that previously identified unique cysteine residues are not essential for signal perception in CARD1. Interestingly, CARD1 harbors a copper ion on the surface of the ectodomain via histidine-coordination that is crucial for hydrogen peroxide signaling. Our work reports a unique copper-dependent redox perception in plants and provides insight into interactions between receptors and non-peptide stimuli during perception.
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.
