HSV-2 is a member of the α-herpesvirinae subfamily that together with the β- and γ-herpesvirinae subfamilies forms the Herpesviridae family. Here, we report the cryo-electron microscopy structure of the HSV-2 C-capsid with capsid-vertex-specific component (CVSC) that was determined at 3.75 Å using a block-based reconstruction strategy. We present atomic models of multiple conformers for the capsid proteins (VP5, VP23, VP19C, and VP26) and CVSC. Comparison of the HSV-2 homologs yields information about structural similarities and differences between the three herpesviruses sub-families and we identify α-herpesvirus-specific structural features. The hetero-pentameric CVSC, consisting of a UL17 monomer, a UL25 dimer and a UL36 dimer, is bound tightly by a five-helix bundle that forms extensive networks of subunit contacts with surrounding capsid proteins, which reinforce capsid stability.

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.
