Journal: Nat Microbiol / Year: 2018 Title: A unique cytoplasmic ATPase complex defines the Legionella pneumophila type IV secretion channel.

Conserved ATPases are essential for T4SS function, but how they coordinate their activities to promote substrate transfer remains poorly understood. Here, we show that the DotB ATPase associates with the Dot-Icm T4SS at the Legionella cell pole through interactions with the DotO ATPase. The structure of the Dot-Icm apparatus was solved in situ by cryo-electron tomography at 3.5 nm resolution and the cytoplasmic complex was solved at 3.0 nm resolution. These structures revealed a cell envelope-spanning channel that connects to the cytoplasmic complex. Further analysis revealed a hexameric assembly of DotO dimers associated with the inner membrane complex, and a DotB hexamer associated with the base of this cytoplasmic complex. The assembly of a DotB-DotO energy complex creates a cytoplasmic channel that directs the translocation of substrates through the T4SS. These data define distinct stages in Dot-Icm machine biogenesis, advance our understanding of channel activation, and identify an envelope-spanning T4SS channel.

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.
