There are no structures of TF/FVIIa on ...Blood clotting is triggered in hemostasis and thrombosis when the membrane-bound tissue factor (TF)/factor VIIa (FVIIa) complex activates factor X (FX). There are no structures of TF/FVIIa on membranes, with or without FX. Using cryo-EM to address this gap, we assembled TF/FVIIa complexes on nanoscale membrane bilayers (nanodiscs), bound to XK1 and an antibody fragment. XK1 is a FX mimetic whose protease domain is replaced by the first Kunitz-type (K1) domain of tissue factor pathway inhibitor, while 10H10 is a non-inhibitory, anti-TF antibody. We determined a cryo-EM structure of a TF/FVIIa/XK1/10H10/nanodisc complex with a resolution of 3.7 Å, allowing us to model all the protein backbones. TF/FVIIa extends perpendicularly from the membrane, interacting with a "handle shaped" XK1 at two locations: the K1 domain docks into FVIIa's active site, while the γ-carboxyglutamate-rich (GLA) domain binds to TF's substrate-binding exosite. The FX and FVIIa GLA domains also contact each other and the membrane surface. Except for a minor contact between the first epidermal growth factor (EGF)-like domain of XK1 and TF, the rest of the FX light chain does not interact with TF/FVIIa. The structure reveals a previously unrecognized, membrane-dependent allosteric activation mechanism between FVIIa and TF where a serine-rich loop in TF that partially obscures the TF exosite must undergo a shift to allow access of the FX GLA domain to its final binding location on the membrane-bound TF/FVIIa complex. This mechanism also provides a novel explanation for the otherwise puzzling phenomenon of TF encryption/decryption on cell surfaces.

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.
