Journal: Nat Commun / Year: 2025 Title: Structural dynamics and permeability of the TRPV3 pentamer.

Recently, using high-speed atomic force microscopy (HS-AFM), we discovered a rare and transient pentameric state for TRPV3 that is in equilibrium with the tetrameric state, and, using cryo-EM, we solved a low-resolution structure of the TRPV3 pentamer, in which, however, many residues were unresolved. Here, we present a higher resolution and more complete structure of the pentamer, revealing a domain-swapped architecture, a collapsed vanilloid binding site, and a large pore. Molecular dynamics simulations and potential of mean force calculations of the pentamer establish high protein dynamics and permeability to large cations. Subunit interface analysis, together with thermal denaturation experiments, led us to propose a molecular mechanism of the tetramer-to-pentamer transition, backed experimentally by HS-AFM observations. Collectively, our data demonstrate that the TRPV3 pentamer is in a hyper-activated state with unique, highly permissive permeation properties.
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.
