MCT8 and MCT10 have unique cargo specificity, transporting thyroid hormone and, in the case of MCT10, aromatic amino acids. Dysfunctional MCT8 causes the severe Allan-Herndon-Dudley syndrome, yet the (patho)physiology and function of MCT8 and MCT10 are not clearly understood, especially at a structural level. We present the cryoelectron microscopy (cryo-EM) structure of MCT10, displaying the classical major facilitator superfamily fold, caught in an inward-open configuration. Together with cargo docking models, the outward-open MCT10 AlphaFold model and validating functional analysis, cargo specificity and transport principles are proposed. These findings significantly enhance our understanding of the structure and function of MCTs, information that also may be valuable for the development of novel treatments against MCT-related disorders to address global challenges such as diabetes, obesity, and cancer.
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.
