ClpB disaggregase belonging to the AAA+ ATPase superfamily removes the aggregated toxic proteins. ClpB is present ubiquitously in bacteria, yeast, protozoans and plants and plays a role in acquired heat tolerance. This study was focused on cytoplasmic ClpB1 from rice which is the staple food for more than half of world's population. In bacteria and yeast, ClpB forms a hexameric assembly for carrying out the disaggregase function, however, none of the plant ClpB isoforms have been structurally characterized. Here, we report the cryo-EM structure of ClpB1 from rice (Oryza sativa L.; OsClpB1) at 4 Å resolution. The structure reveals that OsClpB1 assembles as an unusual heptameric ring, possibly representing a non-processive open conformation. Our results point to the structural plasticity of OsClpB1 since it exists in different oligomeric forms. Analytical ultracentrifugation studies confirmed OsClpB1 exist as a heptamer in solution as well, suggesting the presence of the heptameric form of OsClpB1 within the cellular milieu of the rice plant.
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.
