Journal: Biochem Biophys Res Commun / Year: 2022 Title: Cryo-EM structures reveal distinct apo conformations of sortilin-related receptor SORLA. Authors: Xi Zhang / Cang Wu / Zhihong Song / Dayong Sun / Liting Zhai / Chuang Liu / Abstract: Sorting-related receptor with A-type repeats (SORLA) is an important receptor for regulating normal cellular functions via protein sorting. Here, we determined the structures of the full-length SORLA ...Sorting-related receptor with A-type repeats (SORLA) is an important receptor for regulating normal cellular functions via protein sorting. Here, we determined the structures of the full-length SORLA and identified two distinct conformations of apo-SORLA using single-particle cryogenic electron microscopy. In contrast to homologous proteins, both monomer and dimer forms of SORLA existed in a neutral solution. Only three hydrogen bonds in the vicinity of the dimer interface implied the involvement in dimerization. The orientation of residue R490 was a key point for ligand binding. These results suggest a unique mechanism of SORLA dimerization for protein trafficking.
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.
