Multiple myeloma (MM) is a plasma cell malignancy wherein the BLIMP-1 regulon remains critical to support basal cell functions, such as an elevated metabolic state and immunoglobulin production that underlie disease manifestation and tumor cell proliferation. It is predicted that perturbation of BLIMP-1 will significantly impact tumor cell homeostasis and ultimately reduce MM cell survival. Herein, we describe the discovery and optimization of the first orally bioavailable BLIMP-1 heterobifunctional ligand-directed degrader (LDD) and demonstration of the expected antitumor response and immunomodulatory biology following BLIMP-1 degradation using preclinical in vivo MM models.
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.
