Journal: Nat Commun / Year: 2025 Title: GORK K channel structure and gating vital to informing stomatal engineering. Authors: Xue Zhang / William Carroll / Thu Binh-Anh Nguyen / Thanh-Hao Nguyen / Zhao Yang / Miaolian Ma / Xiaowei Huang / Adrian Hills / Hui Guo / Rucha Karnik / Michael R Blatt / Peng Zhang / Abstract: The Arabidopsis GORK channel is a major pathway for guard cell K efflux that facilitates stomatal closure. GORK is an outwardly-rectifying member of the cyclic-nucleotide binding-homology domain ...The Arabidopsis GORK channel is a major pathway for guard cell K efflux that facilitates stomatal closure. GORK is an outwardly-rectifying member of the cyclic-nucleotide binding-homology domain (CNBHD) family of K channels with close homologues in all other angiosperms known to date. Its bioengineering has demonstrated the potential for enhanced carbon assimilation and water use efficiency. Here we identify critical domains through structural and functional analysis, highlighting conformations that reflect long-lived closed and pre-open states of GORK. These conformations are marked by interactions at the cytosolic face of the membrane between so-called voltage-sensor, C-linker and CNBHD domains, the latter relocating across 10 Å below the voltage sensor. The interactions center around two coupling sites that functional analysis establish are critical for channel gating. The channel is also subject to putative, ligand-like interactions within the CNBHD, which leads to its gating independence of cyclic nucleotides such as cAMP or cGMP. These findings implicate a multi-step mechanism of semi-independent conformational transitions that underlie channel activity and offer promising new sites for optimizing GORK to engineer stomata.
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.
