However, the role of nsp1 in other host species remains elusive, especially in bats-natural reservoirs of sarbecoviruses with a markedly different innate immune system than humans. We reveal that nsp1 potently inhibits translation in Rhinolophus lepidus bat cells, which belong to the same genus as known sarbecovirus reservoir hosts. We determined a cryoelectron microscopy structure of nsp1 bound to the R. lepidus 40S ribosomal subunit, showing that it blocks the mRNA entry channel by targeting a highly conserved site among mammals. Accordingly, we found that nsp1 blocked protein translation in mammalian cells from several species, underscoring its broadly inhibitory activity and conserved role in numerous SARS-CoV-2 hosts. Our findings illuminate the arms race between coronaviruses and mammalian host immunity, providing a foundation for understanding the determinants of viral maintenance in bat hosts and spillover.
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.
