Neurotoxin conformation is crucial for its translocation to the neuronal cytosol, a key process for intoxication that is only poorly understood. To gain molecular insights into the steps preceding toxin translocation, we determine cryo-EM structures of BoNT/A1 alone and in complex with its receptor synaptic vesicle glycoprotein 2B (SV2B). In solution, BoNT/A1 adopts a unique, semi-closed conformation. The toxin changes its structure into an open state upon receptor binding with the translocation domain (H) and the catalytic domain (LC) remote from the membrane, suggesting translocation incompatibility. Under acidic pH conditions, where translocation is initiated, receptor-bound BoNT/A1 switches back into a semi-closed conformation. This conformation brings the LC and H close to the membrane, suggesting that a translocation-competent state of the toxin is required for successful LC transport into the neuronal cytosol.
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.
