This bacterium is also commonly found in the respiratory tract of many mammals and can cause serious diseases resulting in the rapid death of infected animals, especially cattle. To prevent these infections in cattle, a subunit-based vaccine utilizing the surface lipoprotein PmSLP was developed and showed remarkable protection with a single dose administration. Here, we report that PmSLP binds host complement factor I (FI) and facilitates cleavage of complement components C3b and C4b independently of any cofactors (e.g., FH, C4BP), thereby allowing the pathogen to evade host defence. Cryo-EM structure of PmSLP bound to FI reveals that PmSLP stimulates FI enzymatic activity by stabilizing the catalytic domain. This is the first time that a bacterial protein has been shown to directly activate FI independent of complement cofactors and target all arms of the complement cascade.
Mass: 28613.104 Da / Num. of mol.: 2 / Mutation: E222A, K223A, and K224A Source method: isolated from a genetically manipulated source Details: The protein construct contains a linker region, thrombin cleavage site, and a 10X His tag at the C-terminus. The His tag is removed by thrombin after the affinity purification step. Source: (gene. exp.)

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.
