In this study, using two of our most potent -sulfonamido-2-phenylbenzoxazoles (PBZs), we established the binding site of the PBZ molecules using cryo-EM and found that GroEL was the cellular target responsible for the mode of action. Cryo-EM revealed that PBZ1587 binds at the GroEL ring-ring interface (RRI). A cellular reporter assay confirmed that PBZ1587 engaged GroEL in cells, but cellular rescue experiments showed potential off-target effects. This prompted us to explore a closely related analogue, PBZ1038, which is also bound to the RRI. Biochemical characterization showed potent inhibition of Gram-negative chaperonins but much lower potency of chaperonin from a Gram-positive organism, . A cellular reporter assay showed that PBZ1038 also engaged GroEL in cells and that the cytotoxic phenotype could be rescued by a chromosomal copy of GroEL/GroES or by expressing a recalcitrant RRI mutant. These data argue that PBZ1038's antimicrobial action is exerted through inhibition of GroES/GroEL, validating this chaperone system as an antibiotic target.
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.
