Unlike other CDKs, CDK16 is regulated by an unclear mechanism involving phosphorylated cyclin Y (CCNY) in complex with 14-3-3 proteins rather than CCNY alone. The present study aims at elucidating this mechanism by structurally characterizing CDK16 in complex with CCNY and 14-3-3 using several biophysical techniques. As shown by cryo-EM analysis and hydrogen/deuterium exchange coupled to mass spectrometry, 14-3-3 binding modulates the conformation of a key moiety of the CDK binding surface of CCNY, thereby enabling CDK16 activation. CDK16 interacts with the cyclin box of CCNY, while 14-3-3 provides additional contacts, including with the activation segment of CDK16. CDK16 activation also requires interactions of CCNY with the N-terminal extension of CDK16. These findings not only clarify the role of CCNY and 14-3-3 in CDK16 activation but also highlight the potential of targeting CDK16 protein-protein interactions for cancer therapy.
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.
