Recent studies have shed light on spliceosome assembly and remodelling for catalysis, but the mechanism of disassembly remains unclear. Here we report cryo-electron microscopy structures of nematode and human terminal intron lariat spliceosomes along with biochemical and genetic data. Our results uncover how four disassembly factors and the conserved RNA helicase DHX15 initiate spliceosome disassembly. The disassembly factors probe large inner and outer spliceosome surfaces to detect the release of ligated mRNA. Two of these factors, TFIP11 and C19L1, and three general spliceosome subunits, SYF1, SYF2 and SDE2, then dock and activate DHX15 on the catalytic U6 snRNA to initiate disassembly. U6 therefore controls both the start and end of pre-mRNA splicing. Taken together, our results explain the molecular basis of the initiation of canonical spliceosome disassembly and provide a framework to understand general spliceosomal RNA helicase control and the discard of aberrant spliceosomes.
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.
