Journal: PLoS One / Year: 2023 Title: FlgV forms a flagellar motor ring that is required for optimal motility of Helicobacter pylori.

H. pylori has evolved a high-torque-generating flagellar motor that possesses several accessories not found in the archetypical Escherichia coli motor. FlgV was one of the first flagellar accessory proteins identified in Campylobacter jejuni, but its structure and function remain poorly understood. Here, we confirm that deletion of flgV in H. pylori B128 and a highly motile variant of H. pylori G27 (G27M) results in reduced motility in soft agar medium. Comparative analyses of in-situ flagellar motor structures of wild-type, ΔflgV, and a strain expressing FlgV-YFP showed that FlgV forms a ring-like structure closely associated with the junction of two highly conserved flagellar components: the MS and C rings. The results of our studies suggest that the FlgV ring has adapted specifically in Campylobacterota to support the assembly and efficient function of the high-torque-generating motors.
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.
