Wzc, an integral cytoplasmic membrane tyrosine autokinase protein serves as the master regulator of the biosynthesis and export of many bacterial capsular polysaccharides and exopolysaccharides. Such polysaccharides play essential roles in infection, defence, and some are important industrial products. Wzc comprises a large periplasmic domain, two transmembrane helices and a C-terminal cytoplasmic kinase domain with a tyrosine-rich tail. Wzc regulates polymerisation functions through cycling the formation and dissociation of an octameric complex, driven by changes in the phosphorylation status of the tyrosine-rich tail. E. coli Wzc serves a model for a wider family of polysaccharide co-polymerases. Here, we determine structures of intermediate states with different extents of phosphorylation. Structural and computational data reveal the pre-ordering of the tyrosine-rich tail, the molecular basis underlying the unidirectionality of phosphorylation events, and the underlying structural dynamics on how phosphorylation status is transmitted.
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.
