Ribosomes are degraded during stress, but the mechanisms responsible remain unclear. Here, we show that starvation induces the selective depletion of 40S ribosomes following their ubiquitylation by the E3 ligase RNF10. The atypical kinase RIOK3 specifically recognizes these ubiquitylated 40S ribosomes through a unique ubiquitin-interacting motif, visualized by cryoelectron microscopy (cryo-EM). RIOK3 binding and ubiquitin recognition are essential for 40S ribosome degradation during starvation. RIOK3 induces the degradation of ubiquitylated 40S ribosomes through progressive decay of their 18S rRNA beginning at the 3' end, as revealed by cryo-EM structures of degradation intermediates. Together, these data define a pathway and mechanism for stress-induced degradation of 40S ribosomes, directly connecting ubiquitylation to regulation of ribosome homeostasis.
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.
