Despite being researched for over a century, the structure of YFV has remained elusive. Here we use a chimeric virus platform to resolve the first high resolution cryo-EM structures of YFV. Stark differences in particle morphology and homogeneity are observed between vaccine and virulent strains of YFV, and these are found to have significant implications on antibody recognition and neutralisation. We identify a single residue (R380) in the YFV envelope protein that stabilises the virion surface, and leads to reduced exposure of the cross-reactive fusion loop epitope. The differences in virion morphology between YFV strains also contribute to the reduced sensitivity of the virulent YFV virions to vaccine-induced antibodies. These findings have significant implications for YFV biology, vaccinology and structure-based flavivirus antigen design.

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.
