Within the angiotensin receptor pharmacological landscape, agonists are peptide ligands, whereas potent antagonists are predominantly small molecules. Three decades ago, a small number of nonpeptide AT1R agonists were identified. These molecules largely share a chemical scaffold with AT1R antagonists, but appeared to interact with the receptor in a manner that diverges from both antagonists and peptide agonists. Here, we revisit L-162,313, the prototype nonpeptide AT1R agonist and determine how the antagonist-like chemical scaffold acts as an agonist. L-162,313 binds similarly to AT1R antagonists, but unlike antagonists, it engages the same activation switches as peptide agonists. We map the spatial relationship required for activation of AT1R by nonpeptide agonists and used this information to design a small library of L-162,313 derivatives. These rationally designed derivatives had the expected reduced or enhanced potency based on the structural basis for activation. Our data resolve a long-standing pharmacological mystery and provide a foundation for generating more efficacious small molecule AT1R agonists.

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.
