Dengue virus belongs to the virus family Flaviviridae. Dengue hemorrhagic disease caused by dengue virus is a public health
problem worldwide. The viral non structural 2B and 3 (NS2B-NS3) protease complex is crucial for virus replication and hence, it is
considered to be a good anti-viral target. Leaf extracts from Carica papaya is generally prescribed for patients with dengue fever, but
there are no scientific evidences for its anti-dengue activity; hence we intended to investigate the anti-viral activity of compounds
present in the leaves of Carica papaya against dengue 2 virus (DENV-2). We analysed the anti-dengue activities of the extracts from
Carica papaya by using bioinformatics tools. Interestingly, we find the flavonoid quercetin with highest binding energy against
NS2B-NS3 protease which is evident by the formation of six hydrogen bonds with the amino acid residues at the binding site of the
receptor. Our results suggest that the flavonoids from Carica papaya have significant anti-dengue activities.

West Nile virus (WNV) and Dengue virus (DENV) replication depends on the viral NS2B-NS3 protease and the host enzyme furin, which emerged as potential drug targets. Modification of our previously described WNV protease inhibitors by basic phenylalanine analogs provided compounds with reduced potency against the WNV and DENV protease. In a second series, their decarboxylated P1-trans-(4-guanidino)cyclohexylamide was replaced by an arginyl-amide moiety. Compound 4-(guanidinomethyl)-phenylacetyl-Lys-Lys-Arg-NH2 inhibits the NS2B-NS3 protease of WNV with an inhibition constant of 0.11?µM. Due to the similarity in substrate specificity, we have also tested the potency of our previously described multibasic furin inhibitors. Their further modification provided chimeric inhibitors with additional potency against the WNV and DENV proteases. A strong inhibition of WNV and DENV replication in cell culture was observed for the specific furin inhibitors, which reduced virus titers up to 10,000-fold. These studies reveal that potent inhibitors of furin can block the replication of DENV and WNV. 相似文献

Dengue virus is endemic throughout tropical and subtropical regions, and cause severe epidemic diseases. The NS2B/NS3 protease is a promising drug target for dengue virus. Herein, we report the discovery and modification of a novel class of thiadiazoloacrylamide derivatives with potent inhibitory activity against the NS2B/NS3 protease. Thiadiazolopyrimidinone 1 was firstly determined as a new chemical structure against NS2B/NS3 from a commercial compound library. Then, we sought to identify similar compounds with the thiadiazoloacrylamide core that would exhibit better activity. A series of analogues were synthesized and fourteen of them were identified with strong inhibitory activities, in which the nitrile group in the linker part was discovered as an essential group for the inhibitory activity. The best of these (8b) demonstrated an IC50 at 2.24 μM based on in vitro DENV2 NS2B-NS3pro assays. 相似文献

The 3-aryl-2-cyanoacrylamide scaffold was designed as core pharmacophore for inhibitors of the Dengue and West Nile virus serine proteases (NS2B-NS3). A total of 86 analogs was prepared to study the structure–activity relationships in detail. Thereby, it turned out that the electron density of the aryl moiety and the central double bond have a crucial influence on the activity of the compounds, whereas the influence of substituents of the amide residue is less relevant. The para-hydroxy substituted analog was found to be the most potent inhibitor in this series with a Ki-value of 35.7 μM at the Dengue and 44.6 μM at the West Nile virus protease. The aprotinin competition assay demonstrates a direct interaction of the inhibitor molecule with active centre of the Dengue virus protease. The target selectivity was studied in a counterscreen with thrombin and found to be 2.8:1 in favor of DEN protease and 2.3:1 in favor of WNV protease, respectively. 相似文献

Dengue virus completes its protein synthesis inside human cells on the endoplasmic reticulum membrane by processing the single-chain polyprotein precursor into 10 functional proteins. This vital process relies on the two-component virus-encoded protease complex; nonstructural protein 3 (NS3) possesses the proteolytic activity in its N-terminus, and NS2B acts as a fundamental activator and membrane-anchoring subunit. The membrane-associated NS2B-NS3 complex has essentially not yet been isolated or studied. We describe here a useful protocol for the preparation of the full-length NS2B-NS3 complex from dengue serotype 2 virus by utilizing a Mistic-fusion expression cassette in Escherichia coli. The protease complex was successfully solubilized and stabilized from the bacterial membrane and purified with the use of fos-choline-14 detergent. The detergent-solubilized protease complex retained autolytic activity and, intriguingly, exists as a robust trimer, implying a molecular assembly in the membrane. We further conducted a random mutagenesis study to efficiently scan for entire residues and motifs contributing to autocleavage and provide evidence of the importance of the two distal β-hairpins in the activity of the viral protease. Our results provide the first comprehensive view of an active dengue protease in the membrane-bound form. 相似文献

Similar to many flavivirus types including Dengue and yellow fever viruses, the nonstructural NS3 multifunctional protein of West Nile virus (WNV) with an N-terminal serine proteinase domain and an RNA triphosphatase, an NTPase domain, and an RNA helicase in the C-terminal domain is implicated in both polyprotein processing and RNA replication and is therefore a promising drug target. To exhibit its proteolytic activity, NS3 proteinase requires the presence of the cofactor encoded by the upstream NS2B sequence. During our detailed investigation of the biology of the WNV helicase, we characterized the ATPase and RNA/DNA unwinding activities of the full-length NS2B-NS3 proteinase-helicase protein as well as the individual NS3 helicase domain lacking both the NS2B cofactor and the NS3 proteinase sequence and the individual NS3 proteinase-helicase lacking only the NS2B cofactor. We determined that both the NS3 helicase and NS3 proteinase-helicase constructs are capable of unwinding both the DNA and the RNA templates. In contrast, the full-length NS2B-NS3 proteinase-helicase unwinds only the RNA templates, whereas its DNA unwinding activity is severely repressed. Our data suggest that the productive, catalytically competent fold of the NS2B-NS3 proteinase moiety represents an essential component of the RNA-DNA substrate selectivity mechanism in WNV and, possibly, in other flaviviruses. Based on our data, we hypothesize that the mechanism we have identified plays a role yet to be determined in WNV replication occurring both within the virus-induced membrane-bound replication complexes in the host cytoplasm and in the nuclei of infected cells. 相似文献

Dengue virus causes serious diseases affecting people in tropical and sub-tropical regions. The nonstructural (NS) protein 2B is an integral membrane protein and important for the regulation of viral protease NS3, which is significant for virus replication. The NS2B-NS3 complex is an important drug target for treating dengue fever. However, little is known about the structure of NS2B in its entirety. Herein, we describe the expression and purification of this integral membrane protein from cell membrane and inclusion bodies of Escherichia coli cells. The initial nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and circular dichroism (CD) results indicate that the purified protein adopts alpha-helical structures in LMPG and TDPC micelles. 相似文献

Dengue virus type 2 NS3, a multifunctional protein, has a serine protease domain (NS3pro) that requires the conserved hydrophilic domain of NS2B for protease activity in cleavage of the polyprotein precursor at sites following two basic amino acids. In this study, we report the expression of the NS2B-NS3pro precursor in Escherichia coli as a fusion protein with a histidine tag at the N terminus. The precursor was purified from insoluble inclusion bodies by Ni(2+) affinity and gel filtration chromatography under denaturing conditions. The denatured precursor was refolded to yield a purified active protease complex. Biochemical analysis of the protease revealed that its activity toward either a natural substrate, NS4B-NS5 precursor, or the fluorogenic peptide substrates containing two basic residues at P1 and P2, was dependent on the presence of the NS2B domain. The peptide with a highly conserved Gly residue at P3 position was 3-fold more active as a substrate than a Gln residue at this position. The cleavage of a chromogenic substrate with a single Arg residue at P1 was NS2B-independent. These results suggest that heterodimerization of the NS3pro domain with NS2B generates additional specific interactions with the P2 and P3 residues of the substrates. 相似文献

We have cloned and sequenced RNA encoding all virion and nonstructural proteins of tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV). Its length is 10,477 bases with a single open reading frame (nucleotides 127-10,363) encoding 3412 amino acids. The 5'- and 3'-noncoding regions have stem- and- loop structure. The polyprotein precursor is proteolytically cleaved, apparently, by a mechanism resembling that proposed for the expression of polyproteins of other flaviviruses, such as yellow fever, West Nile and Kunjin viruses. The deduced TBEV gene order is 5'-C-preM (M)-E-NS1-NS2A-NS2B-NS3-NS4A-NS4B-NS5++ +-3'. The genome and the polyprotein of TBEV and other flaviviruses appears to be structurally similar, although these flaviviruses are transmitted to and from their vertebrate hosts by different carriers, such as ticks or mosquitoes. Analysis of sequence homologies of polyproteins of flaviviruses suggests that TBEV is more closely related to yellow fever virus than to other serological subgroups of flaviviruses (West Nile or Dengue viruses). The hydrophobic profiles of the flaviviruses are highly conservative. Nonstructural proteins NS2A, NS2B, NS4A and NS4B are extremely hydrophobic, suggesting that they are likely to be associated with cellular membranes. Proteins E, NS1, NS3 and NS5 are the most conservative and may be involved in general enzymatic activities related to viral replication and virion assembly. 相似文献

Yellow fever virus is the causative agent of Yellow fever. The genome of the virus contains three structural and seven non-structural proteins. Of these seven nonstructural
proteins, NS2B-NS3 protein complex has protease activity required for viral replication. Predicting the 3D structure of this complex and studying the
interaction of residues at the recognized catalytic triad of the complex is an integral part to understand the virus replication mechanism. In the present study, the
structure was determined for NS2B-NS3 complex by Homology modeling and modeled structure was validated for its stability. Mutation studies at the residues
His94, Asp118 and Ser176 revealed that Asp118-His94 bond played an important role in the structural stability of NS2B-NS3 complex. This indicates site-directed
mutagenesis, controlling YFV replication, as one mechanism to design vaccine strains. Docking studies of the bioactive compounds at the active site of NS2B-NS3
complex also indicated 4-hydroxypanduratin A as potential lead compound for drug development. The theoretical models will further pave way to experimentally
verify our mutation and docking studies, thus taking a lead in pharmacogenomics and drug development.

The replication of flaviviruses requires the correct processing of their polyprotein by the viral NS3 protease (NS3pro). Essential for the activation of NS3pro is a 47-residue region of NS2B. Here we report the crystal structures of a dengue NS2B-NS3pro complex and a West Nile virus NS2B-NS3pro complex with a substrate-based inhibitor. These structures identify key residues for NS3pro substrate recognition and clarify the mechanism of NS3pro activation. 相似文献

The cleavage mechanism utilized for processing of the NS3-NS4A-NS4B-NS5 domain of the dengue virus polyprotein was studied by using the vaccinia virus expression system. Recombinant vaccinia viruses vNS2B-NS3-NS4A-NS4B-NS5, vNS3-NS4A-NS4B-NS5, vNS4A-NS4B-NS5, and vNS4B-NS5 were constructed. These recombinants were used to infect cells, and the labeled lysates were analyzed by immunoprecipitation. Recombinant vNS2B-NS3-NS4A-NS4B-NS5 expressed the authentic NS3 and NS5 proteins, but the other recombinants produced uncleaved polyproteins. These findings indicate that NS2B is required for processing of the downstream nonstructural proteins, including the NS3/NS4A and NS4B/NS5 junctions, both of which contain a dibasic amino acid sequence preceding the cleavage site. The flavivirus NS4A/NS4B cleavage site follows a long hydrophobic sequence. The polyprotein NS4A-NS4B-NS5 was cleaved at the NS4A/NS4B junction in the absence of other dengue virus functions. One interpretation for this finding is that NS4A/NS4B cleavage is mediated by a host protease, presumably a signal peptidase. Although vNS3-NS4A-NS4B-NS5 expressed only the polyprotein, earlier results demonstrated that cleavage at the NS4A/NS4B junction occurred when an analogous recombinant, vNS3-NS4A-84%NS4B, was expressed. Thus, it appears that uncleaved NS3 plus NS5 inhibit NS4A/NS4B cleavage presumably because the putative signal sequence is not accessible for recognition by the responsible protease. Finally, recombinants that expressed an uncleaved NS4B-NS5 polyprotein, such as vNS4A-NS4B-NS5 or vNS4B-NS5, produced NS5 when complemented with vNS2B-30%NS3 or with vNS2B plus v30%NS3. These results indicate that cleavage at the NS4B/NS5 junction can be mediated by NS2B and NS3 in trans. 相似文献

Processing of dengue virus type 2 polyprotein precursor NS3-NS4A-NS4B-NS5 could be mediated by the catalytically active NS3 protease domain and NS2B in trans at the dibasic sites NS3-NS4A and NS4B-NS5. Subcellular localization of the unprocessed precursor NS3-NS4A-NS4B-NS5 showed that it was confined to a distinct subcellular organelle in the cytoplasm, which was distinct from the distribution of the mature NS5. 相似文献

Objectives
To determine the inhibitory activities of flavonoids against NS2B-NS3 protease of ZIKA virus (ZIKV NS2B-NS3pro) expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) and their structure activity relationship.Results
ZIKV NS2B-NS3pro was expressed in E. coli BL21(DE3) as a 35 kDa protein. It had a K m of 26 µM with the fluorogenic peptide Dabcyl-KTSAVLQSGFRKME-Edan. The purified ZIKV NS2B-NS3pro was used for inhibition and kinetic assays to determine the activities of 22 polyphenol compounds. These polyphenol compounds at 100 µM inhibited the activity of ZIKV NS2B-NS3pro by 6.2–88%. Seven polyphenol compounds had IC50 ranging from 22 ± 0.2 to 112 ± 5.5 µM. Myricetin showed a mixed type inhibitory pattern against ZIKV NS2B-NS3pro protease. Its IC50 value was 22 ± 0.2 µM with a K i value of 8.9 ± 1.9 µM.Conclusion
The chemical structure of a polyphenol compound and its inhibitory activity against ZIKV NS2B-NS3pro can be explored to develop highly selective inhibitors against ZIKV NS2B-NS3pro.16.

The NS2B-NS3(pro) polyprotein segment from the dengue virus serotype 2 strain 16681 was purified from overexpressing E. coli by metal chelate affinity chromatography and gel filtration. Enzymatic activity of the refolded NS2B-NS3(pro) protease complex was determined in vitro with dansyl-labeled peptide substrates, based upon native dengue virus type 2 cleavage sites. The 12mer substrate peptides and the cleavage products could be separated by reversed-phase HPLC, and were identified by UV and fluorescence detection. All of the peptide substrates (representing the DEN polyprotein junction sequences at the NS2A/NS2B, NS2B/NS3, NS3/NS4A and NS4B/NS5 sites) were cleaved by the recombinant protease NS2B-NS3(pro). No cleavage was observed with an enzymatically inactive S135A mutant of the NS3 protein, or with a modified substrate peptide of the NS3/NS4A polyprotein site that contained a K2093A substitution. Enzymatic activity was dependent on the salt concentration. A 50% decrease of activity was observed in the presence of 0.1 M sodium chloride. Our results show that the NS3 protease activity of the refolded NS2BNS3(pro) protein can be assayed in vitro with high specificity by using cleavage-junction derived peptide substrates. 相似文献

NS2B-NS3 protease is an essential enzyme for the replication of dengue virus (DENV), which continues to be a serious threat to worldwide public health. We designed and synthesized a series of cyclic peptides mimicking the substrates of this enzyme, and assayed their activity against the DENV-2 NS2B-NS3 protease. The introduction of aromatic residues at the appropriate positions and conformational restriction generated the most promising cyclic peptide with an IC50 of 0.95 μM against NS2B-NS3 protease. Cyclic peptides with proper positioning of additional arginines and aromatic residues exhibited antiviral activity against DENV. Furthermore, replacing the C-terminal amide bond of the polybasic amino acid sequence with an amino methylene moiety stabilized the cyclic peptides against hydrolysis by NS2B-NS3 protease, while maintaining their enzyme inhibitory activity and antiviral activity. 相似文献

The N-terminal part of the NS3 protein from dengue virus contains a trypsin-like serine protease responsible for processing the nonstructural region of the viral polyprotein. Enzymatic activity of the NS2B-NS3(pro) precursor incorporating a full-length NS2B cofactor of dengue virus type 2 was examined by using synthetic dodecamer peptide substrates encompassing native cleavage sequences of the NS2A/NS2B, NS2B/NS3, NS3/NS4A and NS4B/NS5 polyprotein junctions. Cleavage of the dansylated substrates was monitored by a HPLC-based assay and kinetic parameters for K(1M), k(cat) and k(cat)/K(m) were obtained. The data presented here show that NS2B-NS3(pro) expressed in recombinant E. coli can be renatured to an active protease which reacts in the absence of microsomal membranes with all 4 substrate peptides, albeit the molecule does not exhibit autoproteolytic processing at the NS2B/NS3 site. A marked difference in cleavage efficiency was found for the NS2B/NS3 substrate and the remaining 3 peptides based on the NS2A/NS2B, NS3/NS4A and NS4A/NS5 cleavage sites. 相似文献

A recombinant dengue 2 virus NS2B-NS3 protease (NS means non-structural virus protein) was compared with human furin for the capacity to process short peptide substrates corresponding to seven native substrate cleavage sites in the dengue viral polyprotein. Using fluorescence resonance energy transfer peptides to measure kinetics, the processing of these substrates was found to be selective for the Dengue protease. Substrates containing two or three basic amino acids (Arg or Lys) in tandem were found to be the best, with Abz-AKRRSQ-EDDnp being the most efficiently cleaved. The hydrolysis of dipeptide substrates Bz-X-Arg-MCA where X is a non-natural basic amino acid were also kinetically examined, the best substrates containing aliphatic basic amino acids. Our results indicated that proteolytic processing by dengue NS3 protease, tethered to its activating NS2B co-factor, was strongly inhibited by Ca2+ and kosmotropic salts of the Hofmeister's series, and significantly influenced by substrate modifications between S4 and S6'. Incorporation of basic non-natural amino acids in short peptide substrates had significant but differential effects on Km and k(cat), suggesting that further dissection of their influences on substrate affinity might enable the development of effective dengue protease inhibitors. 相似文献

One approach to treating the dengue virus infection is to inhibit its NS2B-NS3 protease that plays a vital role in virus maturation. However, the lack of structural information on the active conformation of the protease hindered related drug design. With a co-expression system, we obtained the active two-component protease in its unlinked form. BPTI shows strong competitive inhibitory activity (Ki = 6.5 nM) against this unlinked protease, which adopts a closed conformation. Based on the biochemical and NMR perturbation information, an inhibition model of BPTI to NS2B-NS3 protease is proposed. 相似文献
