Journal: J Biol Chem / Year: 2024 Title: Structure of the endogenous insect acetyl-coA carboxylase carboxyltransferase domain. Authors: Dong Wang / Fan Bu / Ge Yang / Hannah Brenke / Bin Liu / Abstract: Acetyl-coenzyme A carboxylases (ACCs) are pivotal in fatty acid metabolism, converting acetyl-CoA to malonyl-CoA. While ACCs in humans, plants, and microbes have been extensively studied, insect ...Acetyl-coenzyme A carboxylases (ACCs) are pivotal in fatty acid metabolism, converting acetyl-CoA to malonyl-CoA. While ACCs in humans, plants, and microbes have been extensively studied, insect ACCs, crucial for lipid biosynthesis and physiological processes, remain relatively unexplored. Unlike mammals, which have ACC1 and ACC2 in different tissues, insects possess a single ACC gene, underscoring its unique role in their metabolism. Noctuid moths, such as Trichoplusia ni, are major agricultural pests causing significant crop damage and economic loss. Their resistance to both biological and synthetic insecticides complicates pest control. Recent research has introduced cyclic ketoenols as novel insecticides targeting ACCs, yet structural information to guide their design is limited. Here, we present a 3.12 Å cryo-EM structure of the carboxyltransferase (CT) domain of T. ni ACC, offering the first detailed structural insights into insect ACCs. Our structural comparisons with ACC CT domains from other species and analyses of drug-binding sites can guide future drug modification and design. Notably, unique interactions between the CT and the central domain in T. ni ACC provide new directions for studying the ACC holoenzyme. These findings contribute valuable information for pest control and a basic biological understanding of lipid biosynthesis.

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.
