Journal: Structure / Year: 2022 Title: In situ structure of the AcrAB-TolC efflux pump at subnanometer resolution.

Here, we present the in situ structure of full-length Escherichia coli AcrAB-TolC determined at 7 Å resolution by electron cryo-tomography. The TolC channel penetrates the outer membrane bilayer through to the outer leaflet and exhibits two different configurations that differ by a 60° rotation relative to the AcrB position in the pump assembly. AcrA protomers interact directly with the inner membrane and with AcrB via an interface located in proximity to the AcrB ligand-binding pocket. Our structural analysis suggests that these AcrA-bridged interactions underlie an allosteric mechanism for transmitting drug-evoked signals from AcrB to the TolC channel within the pump. Our study demonstrates the power of in situ electron cryo-tomography, which permits critical insights into the function of bacterial efflux pumps.
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.
