Several soluble PG biosynthesis products in the periplasm are transported to the cytosol for recycling, leading to enhanced bacterial fitness. GlcNAc-1,6-anhydroMurNAc and peptide variants are transported by the essential major facilitator superfamily importer AmpG in Gram-negative pathogens including Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Acinetobacter baumannii, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Accumulation of GlcNAc-1,6-anhydroMurNAc-pentapeptides also results from β-lactam antibiotic induced cell wall damage. In some species, these products upregulate the β-lactamase AmpC, which hydrolyzes β-lactams to allow for bacterial survival and drug-resistant infections. Here, we have used cryo-electron microscopy and chemical synthesis of substrates in an integrated structural, biochemical, and cellular analysis of AmpG. We show how AmpG accommodates the large GlcNAc-1,6-anhydroMurNAc peptides, including a unique hydrophobic vestibule to the substrate binding cavity, and characterize residues involved in binding that inform the mechanism of proton-mediated transport.
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.
