It contains four conserved PDZ domains, which typically recognize a 3-5-residue long motif at the C terminus of the binding partner. The atomic structures of the individual domains are available but their spatial arrangement in the full-length context influencing the binding properties remained elusive. Here we report a systematic study of full-length PDZK1 and deletion constructs using small-angle X-ray scattering, complemented with biochemical and functional studies on PDZK1 binding to known membrane protein partners. A hybrid modeling approach utilizing multiple scattering datasets yielded a well-defined, extended, asymmetric L-shaped domain organization of PDZK1 in contrast to a flexible "beads-on-string" model predicted by bioinformatics analysis. The linker regions of PDZK1 appear to play a central role in the arrangement of the four domains underlying the importance of studying scaffolding proteins in their full-length context.
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.
