Here we show that the yeast Chd1 remodeler requires two activating segments to distort nucleosomal DNA into an A-form-like conformation, a critical first step in nucleosome sliding. As shown by cryo-electron microscopy, these two activating segments together pack against the ATPase motor, where they are poised to stabilize the central ATPase cleft. These activating elements contact the ATPase at locations that are incompatible with binding of NegC, an autoinhibitory segment located between the two activators. NegC inhibits sliding by antagonizing the activators through steric competition and constraining activator placement, giving rise to directional nucleosome sliding. Given that activator reinforcement of the ATPase cleft is needed for DNA distortion, this first step in remodeling appears to provide a natural checkpoint for regulation of chromatin remodeler activity.
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.
