Journal: Biochemistry / Year: 2024 Title: Structure of the SARS-CoV-2 Frameshift Stimulatory Element with an Upstream Multibranch Loop. Authors: Jake M Peterson / Scott T Becker / Collin A O'Leary / Puneet Juneja / Yang Yang / Walter N Moss / Abstract: The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) frameshift stimulatory element (FSE) is necessary for programmed -1 ribosomal frameshifting (-1 PRF) and optimized viral efficacy. The ...The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) frameshift stimulatory element (FSE) is necessary for programmed -1 ribosomal frameshifting (-1 PRF) and optimized viral efficacy. The FSE has an abundance of context-dependent alternate conformations, but two of the structures most crucial to -1 PRF are an attenuator hairpin and a three-stem H-type pseudoknot structure. A crystal structure of the pseudoknot alone features three RNA stems in a helically stacked linear structure, whereas a 6.9 Å cryo-EM structure including the upstream heptameric slippery site resulted in a bend between two stems. Our previous research alluded to an extended upstream multibranch loop that includes both the attenuator hairpin and the slippery site-a conformation not previously modeled. We aim to provide further context to the SARS-CoV-2 FSE via computational and medium resolution cryo-EM approaches, by presenting a 6.1 Å cryo-EM structure featuring a linear pseudoknot structure and a dynamic upstream multibranch loop.
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.
