Journal: Commun Biol / Year: 2024 Title: The structural and functional analysis of mycobacteria cysteine desulfurase-loaded encapsulin. Authors: Yanting Tang / Yanyan Liu / Mingjing Zhang / Weiqi Lan / Mengyuan Ma / Cheng Chen / Saibin Wu / Rong Chen / Yiran Yan / Lu Feng / Ying Li / Luke W Guddat / Yan Gao / Xiang Liu / Zihe Rao / Abstract: Encapsulin nanocompartments loaded with dedicated cargo proteins via unique targeting peptides, play a key role in stress resistance, iron storage and natural product biosynthesis. Mmp1 and cysteine ...Encapsulin nanocompartments loaded with dedicated cargo proteins via unique targeting peptides, play a key role in stress resistance, iron storage and natural product biosynthesis. Mmp1 and cysteine desulfurase (Enc-CD) have been identified as the most abundant representatives of family 2 encapsulin systems. However, the molecular assembly, catalytic mechanism, and physiological functions of the Mmp1 encapsulin system have not been studied in detail. Here we isolate and characterize an Enc-CD-loaded Mmp1 encapsulin system from Mycobacterium smegmatis mc155. The cryo-EM structure of the Mmp1 encapsulin and the crystal structure of the naked cargo Enc-CD have been determined. The structure shows that the Mmp1 protomer assembles two conformation models, the icosahedron (T = 1) and homodecamer, with the resolution of 2.60 Å and 2.69 Å. The Enc-CD at 2.10 Å resolution is dimeric and loaded into the Mmp1 (T = 1) encapsulin through the N-terminal long disordered region. Mmp1 encapsulin protects Enc-CD against oxidation as well as to maintain structural stability. These studies provide new insights into the mechanism by which Enc-CD-loaded encapsulin stores sulfur and provides a framework for discovery of new anti-mycobacterial therapeutics.
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.
