Journal: Sci Adv / Year: 2023 Title: Cryo-EM visualization of DNA-PKcs structural intermediates in NHEJ. Authors: Siyu Chen / Alex Vogt / Linda Lee / Tasmin Naila / Ryan McKeown / Alan E Tomkinson / Susan P Lees-Miller / Yuan He / Abstract: DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs), one of the most cytotoxic forms of DNA damage, can be repaired by the tightly regulated nonhomologous end joining (NHEJ) machinery (Stinson and Loparo and Zhao ). ...DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs), one of the most cytotoxic forms of DNA damage, can be repaired by the tightly regulated nonhomologous end joining (NHEJ) machinery (Stinson and Loparo and Zhao ). Core NHEJ factors form an initial long-range (LR) synaptic complex that transitions into a DNA-PKcs (DNA-dependent protein kinase, catalytic subunit)-free, short-range state to align the DSB ends (Chen ). Using single-particle cryo-electron microscopy, we have visualized three additional key NHEJ complexes representing different transition states, with DNA-PKcs adopting distinct dimeric conformations within each of them. Upon DNA-PKcs autophosphorylation, the LR complex undergoes a substantial conformational change, with both Ku and DNA-PKcs rotating outward to promote DNA break exposure and DNA-PKcs dissociation. We also captured a dimeric state of catalytically inactive DNA-PKcs, which resembles structures of other PIKK (Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase-related kinase) family kinases, revealing a model of the full regulatory cycle of DNA-PKcs during NHEJ.

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.
