Metabolically stable phosphorothioate tetramer analogues of (2'-5')(A)n with Rp and/or Sp chirality in the 2'-5'-phosphodiester linkages constitute a new class of antiviral agents since they mimic the effects of interferons. Three of the diastereomeric 5'-monophosphates (i.e., pRpRpRp, pSpRpRp, and pRpSpSp) bind to and activate RNase L from extracts of HeLa cells. However, the pSpSpSp (2'-5')-(A)4-phosphorothioate is unique in that it binds to, but cannot activate, RNase L to cleave rRNA. When microinjected into the cytoplasm of HeLa cells followed by virus infection, the pRpRpRp, pSpRpRp, and pRpSpSp (2'-5')(A)4-phosphorothioates demonstrate antiviral activity, as does (2'-5')(A)4ox-red, an active (2'-5')(A)n analogue. When microinjected simultaneously with (2'-5')(A)nox-red, an active the pSpSpSp (2'-5')(A)4-phosphorothioate inhibits activation of RNase L in HeLa cells, thereby blocking direct protection of vesicular stomatitis virus. The agonist and antagonist properties of pRpRpRp and pSpSpSp, respectively, are transient probably as a consequence of the hydrolysis of the 5'-monophosphate and formation of the less active (2'-5')(A)4-phosphorothioate cores. The possible use of these (2'-5')(A)4-phosphorothioates as tools for dissecting the biological significance of the (2'-5')(A)n system or in antiviral chemotherapy is discussed. 相似文献

Metabolically stable analogues of (2'-5')oligo(adenylate), (2'-5')(A)n, might constitute a new class of antiviral agents as they mimic some of the effects of interferons. 2'-O-phosphoglyceryl derivatives of (2'-5')(A)n oligomers, (2'-5')(A)n-PGro have been synthesized by chemical modification of their terminal ribose residue. Such analogues are resistant to degradation by phosphodiesterases but remain sensitive to phosphatase activity, at least in cell-free extracts. In line with its increased stability, (2'-5')(A)n-PGro has a powerful antiviral activity against an RNA virus when microinjected with micropipettes into the cytoplasm of intact cells. This antiviral activity remains transient however, possibly as a consequence of degradation in intact cells. Since (2'-5')(A)n and its derivatives do not easily cross cell membranes, their possible use in antiviral chemotherapy is tightly linked with the development of vectors suitable for their administration in vivo. 相似文献

Two 5'-modified (2'-5')(A)4 oligomers with an increased resistance to phosphatase degradation were synthesized and evaluated for their ability to develop an antiviral response when introduced into intact cells by microinjection or by chemical conjugation to poly(L-lysine). The enzymatic synthesis of 5'-gamma-phosphorothioate and beta,gamma-difluoromethylene (2'-5')(A)4 from adenosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) and adenosine beta,gamma-difluoromethylenetriphosphate by (2'-5')-oligoadenylate synthetase is described. The isolation and characterization of these (2'-5')(A)4 analogues were achieved by high-performance liquid chromatography. The structures of 5'-modified tetramers were corroborated by enzyme digestion. These two 5'-modified tetramers compete as efficiently as natural (2'-5')(A)4 for the binding of a radiolabeled (2'-5')(A)4 probe to ribonuclease (RNase) L. Nevertheless, at the opposite to 5'-gamma-phosphorothioate (2'-5')(A)4, beta,gamma-difluoromethylene (2'-5')(A)4 failed to induce an antiviral response after microinjection in HeLa cells. In addition, it behaves as an antagonist of RNase L as demonstrated by its ability to inhibit the antiviral properties of 5'-gamma-phosphorothioate (2'-5')(A)4 when both are microinjected in HeLa cells. The increased metabolic stability of 5'-gamma-phosphorothioate (2'-5')(A)4 as compared to that of (2'-5')(A)4 was first demonstrated in cell-free extracts and then confirmed in intact cells after introduction in the form of a conjugate to poly(L-lysine). Indeed, 5'-gamma-phosphorothioate (2'-5')(A)4-poly(L-lysine) conjugate induces protein synthesis inhibition and characteristic ribosomal RNA cleavages for longer times than unmodified (2'-5')(A)4-poly(L-lysine) in the same cell system.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Activation of ribonuclease L by (2'-5')(A)4-poly(L-lysine) conjugates in intact cells 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Molecular hybrids were synthesized by coupling (2'-5')(A)n oligoadenylates or 2-5A, an intracellular mediator involved in antiviral activity of interferons (IFNs), with poly(L-lysine) used as a membrane carrier. (2'-5')(A)n in its free form was not taken up by cells, probably because of its ionic character. Conjugation with the polypeptide carrier overcame this problem and enabled its pharmacological properties to be developed. The alpha-glycol group of individual (2'-5')(A)n oligomers was oxidized by periodate oxidation and conjugated by an amino reductive reaction to poly(L-lysine), Mr 14 000, in a molar ratio of 5:1. These hybrid molecules left the biologically active 5' end moiety of the (2'-5')(A)n molecule unchanged, and in particular its triphosphate group, and stabilized the molecule by increasing its resistance to phosphodiesterase hydrolysis. A dose-dependent inhibition of virus growth was observed on concomitant incubation of (2'-5')(A)n-poly(L-lysine) conjugates with vesicular stomatitis virus infected L1210 cell cultures. This was a result of the activation of the (2'-5')(A)n-dependent endoribonuclease (RNase L) by intracellularly delivered (2'-5')(A)n as in some IFN-treated virus-infected cells. Indeed, (2'-5')(A)n-poly(L-lysine) conjugates bind RNase L effectively as can be seen from their ability to compete with authentic (2'-5')(A)n in a cell-free radiobinding assay. Moreover, (2'-5')(A)n-poly(L-lysine) conjugates promote transient inhibition of protein synthesis and a characteristic cleavage pattern of ribosomal RNAs in intact cells.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

A latent endoribonuclease, RNase L, binds to and is activated by (2'-5')oligoadenylates ((2'-5')(A)n, n = 2-15). Binding to a labeled derivative of (2'-5')(A)n, [32P](2'-5')(A)3pCp, is detected as a protein-ligand complex observed following nondenaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. One major binding complex and two minor binding complexes are readily seen in cytoplasmic extracts from Ehrlich ascites tumor cells, murine tissue extracts and rabbit liver tissue extracts. At least one of the more rapidly migrating complexes appears to be a proteolytic degradation product of the larger [32P](2'-5')(A)3pCp binding protein. Cell and tissue extracts containing [32P](2'-5')(A)3pCp binding activity can be immobilized onto nitrocellulose filters and [32P](2'-5')(A)3pCp binding activity detected using a simple, rapid, economical affinity blot assay. Detection of [32P](2'-5')(A)3pCp binding proteins following electrophoresis on nondenaturing polyacrylamide gels and the affinity blot assay significantly improve and simplify the analysis of (2'-5')(A)n binding proteins. 相似文献

Mechanism of action of Moloney murine leukemia virus RNA-directed DNA polymerase associated RNase H (RNase H I) 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
G F Gerard 《Biochemistry》1981,20(2):256-265
The mechanism of action of the ribonuclease H (RNase H) activity associated with Moloney murine leukemia virus RNA-directed DNA polymerase (RNase H I) and the two-subunit (alpha beta) form of avian myeloblastosis virus DNA polymerase were compared by utilizing the model substrate (A)n.(dT)n and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in 7 M urea to analyze digestion products. Examination on 25% polyacrylamide gels revealed that a larger proportion of the RNase H I oligonucleotide products generated by limited digestion of [3H](A)(1100).(dT)n were acid insoluble (15-26 nucleotides long) than acid soluble (less than 15 nucleotides long), while the opposite was true for products generated by alpha beta RNase H. RNase H I was capable of attacking RNA in RNA.DNA in the 5' to 3' and 3' to 5' directions, as demonstrated by the use of [3H,3'- or 5'-32P](A)(380).(dT)n and cellulose--[3H](A)n.(dT)n. Both RNase H I and alpha beta RNase H degraded [3H]-(A)n.(dT)n with a partially processive mechanism, based upon classical substrate competition experiments and analyses of the kinetics of degradation of [3H,3'- or 5'-32P](A)(380).(dT)n. That is, both enzymes remain bound to a RNA.DNA substrate through a finite number of hydrolytic events but dissociate before the RNA is completely degraded. Both RNase H I and alpha beta RNase H were capable of degrading [14C](A)n in [3H](C)n-[14C](A)n-[32P](dA)n.(dT)n, suggesting that retroviral RNase H is capable of removing the tRNA primer at the 5' terminus of minus strand DNA at the appropriate time during retroviral DNA synthesis in vitro. 相似文献

Treatment with interferon protected HeLa cells from infection with reovirus. This virus apparently activated an antiviral mechanism that was detected by the presence of (2'-5')oligoadenylate [(2'-5')An] in intact cells. The (2'-5')An was previously shown to activate an endoribonuclease, RNase L. We measured (2'-5')An by a sensitive competition-binding assay in cells infected at different multiplicities and for different lengths of time. Nanomolar concentrations of (2'-5')An were detected in cells infected at a multiplicity of greater than 5 after 2 h of infection, the time at which the infecting virions were uncoated. The level of (2'-5')An increased up to 6 h postinfection but declined afterward. To establish whether viral mRNAs were cleaved by RNase L, we analyzed the RNA extracted from infected cells by a highly specific hybridization assay on Northern blots. Full-sized reovirus mRNAs were detected in control infected cells, but not in interferon-treated infected cells, at 6 h postinfection. At this time, a nuclease activity could be detected in these cells by demonstration of cleavage of rRNA, degradation of cellular mRNA, and polysome breakdown in the presence of emetine. Since this inhibitor freezes ribosomes, cleavage of mRNA between ribosomes could only be accounted for by an endonuclease, presumably RNase L. 相似文献

A series of 3'-(N-hydroxyimino)-2',3'-dideoxynucleosides bearing different nucleic bases has been prepared. In vitro antiviral activity studies showed that among these compounds the thymine derivative possesses significant activity against HIV, HSV, EBV and HBV. Conveniently 5'-protected 3'-(N-hydroxyimino)-2',3'-dideoxythymidine was further used as a synthon for the preparation of other nucleoside analogues. 相似文献

In continued studies to elucidate the requirements for binding to and activation of the 2',5'-oligoadenylate (2-5A) dependent endoribonuclease (RNase L), four 2-5A trimer analogs were examined to evaluate the effect of chirality of phosphorothioate substitution on biological activity. The chemical syntheses and purification of the four isomers of P-thio-3'-deoxyadenylyl-(2'-5')-P-thio-3'- deoxyadenylyl-(2'-5')-3'-deoxyadenosine, by the phosphoramidite approach, is described. The isolated intermediates were characterized by elemental and spectral analyses. The fully deblocked compounds were characterized by 1H and 31P NMR and HPLC analyses. The 2',5'-(3'dA)3 cores with either Rp or Sp chirality in the 2',5'-internucleotide linkages will bind to but will not activate RNase L. This is in contrast to 2',5'-A3 core analogs with either RpRp or SpRp phosphorothioate substitution in the 2',5'-internucleotide linkages which can bind to and activate RNase L. There are also marked differences in the ability of the 2',5'-A3 analogs to activate RNase L following introduction of the 5'-monophosphate. For example, the 5'monophosphates of 2',5'-(3'dA)3-RpRp and 2',5'-(3'dA)3-SpRp can bind to and activate RNase L, whereas the 5'-monophosphates of 2',5'-(3'dA)3-RpSp and 2',5'-(3'dA)3-SpSp can bind to but can not activate RNase L. 相似文献

The levels of a (2'-5')An-dependent endonuclease (RNase L) were determined in extracts prepared from murine L cells and Ehrlich ascites tumor (EAT) cells by measuring specific binding of protein to a labeled derivative of (2'-5')An, (2'-5')A3[32P]pCp. RNase L levels were found to depend both on interferon (IFN) treatment and on cell growth conditions. Treatment of murine L cells and EAT cells with 100-2,000 IRU IFN beta or IFN gamma resulted in a similar 2-4-fold increase in the levels of RNase L when cells were present at low density. The levels of RNase L were also shown to increase 2-3-fold as cells approached saturation density. Serum-starved cells also displayed relatively high levels of RNase L. RNase L levels in cells maintained at high cell density did not change appreciably following treatment with IFN beta or IFN gamma. Regulation of RNase L levels by cell growth conditions as well as by IFN beta or IFN gamma treatment suggests that RNase L may play an important role in regulating the levels of cellular mRNAs as well as acting to degrade viral RNAs. 相似文献

The endoribonuclease L (RNase L) is the effector of the 2-5A system, a major enzymatic pathway involved in the molecular mechanism of interferons (IFNs). RNase L is a very unusual nuclease with a complex mechanism of regulation. It is a latent enzyme, expressed in nearly every mammalian cell type. Its activation requires its binding to a small oligonucleotide, 2-5A. 2-5A is a series of unique 5'-triphosphorylated oligoadenylates with 2'-5' phosphodiester bonds. By regulating viral and cellular RNA expression, RNase L plays an important role in the antiviral and antiproliferative activities of IFN and contributes to innate immunity and cell metabolism. The 2-5A/RNase L pathway is implicated in mediating apoptosis in response to viral infections and to several types of external stimuli. Several recent studies have suggested that RNase L could have a role in cancer biology and evidence of a tumor suppressor function of RNase L has emerged from studies on the genetics of hereditary prostate cancer. 相似文献

Through a combination of chemical and enzymatic approaches a series of sequence-specific tubercidin-substituted ppp5'A2'p(5'A2'p)n5'A (n = 1 to about 10; 2-5A) analogues were generated. In addition to the previously developed methodology of Imai and Torrence [Imai, J., & Torrence, P.F. (1985) J. Org. Chem. 50, 1418-1420], a new approach to synthesis of 2',5'-linked oligonucleotides utilized adenosine in 3',5' linkage as a precursor to the targeted 5'-terminus of the desired product. For instance, A3'p5'A could be condensed under conditions of lead ion catalysis with tubercidin 5'-phosphate to give A3'p5'A2'p5'(c7A). Treatment with the 3',5'-specific nuclease P1 led to p5'A2'p5'(c7A). The combined use of the above procedures led to the synthesis of p5'(c7A)2'p5'A2'p5'A, p5'A2'p5'(c7A)2'p5'A, p5'A2'p5'A2'p5'(c7A), and p5'A2p5'(c7A)2'p5'(c7A), which were converted to their corresponding 5'-triphosphates by the usual methods. Evaluation of these analogues for their ability to bind to and activate the 2-5A-dependent endonuclease (RNase L) of mouse L cells showed that there were small changes (less than or equal to 10-fold) in the ability of the four tubercidin analogues to bind to RNase L. However, whenever the first and/or third adenosine nucleotide units were replaced by tubercidin, a dramatic decrease in ability to activate RNase L occurred. Only the second (from the 5'-terminus) adenosine residue could be replaced by tubercidin without any effect on RNase L activation ability. 相似文献

A (2'-5')oligoadenylate-dependent endoribonuclease (RNase L) is an important mediator of interferon's antiviral actions. Levels of this enzyme were determined in spleen, lung, liver, and kidney of mice at different times after birth. The levels of RNase L were found to be relatively low in newborn kidney, lung, and spleen. RNase L levels rise 2- to 10-fold in these three tissues as mice approach 5 days of age. In the spleen, levels of RNase L remain high as mice reach adult life. In the lung and kidney, however, RNase L levels decrease after 14 days. RNase L levels in the liver are highest from birth to 5-7 days and then decrease subsequently and remain low in adult mice. These changes in RNase L levels with postnatal development may be important with regard to age-specific susceptibility to some virus infections. 相似文献

Analogs of 2-5A trimer 5'-monophosphate (2'-5')pA3,p5'A2'p5'A2'p5'A containing 9-(3-fluoro-3-deoxy-c-D-xylofuranosyl)adenine (AF) or 3'-fluoro-3'- deoxyadenosine (AF) at different positions of the chain have been synthesized. All of them were compared with (2'-5')pA3 and (2'-5')pA2 (3'dA) by (i) their ability to bind to 2-5A-dependent endoribonuclease(RNase L) of mouse L cells and of rabbit reticulocyte lysates and (ii) their susceptibility to the degradation by the (2'-5')phosphodiesterase activity. The results of this study suggest that the oligonucleotide conformation is important for its biochemical properties. 相似文献

2-5A trimer [5'-monophosphoryladenylyl(2'-5')adenylyl(2'-5')adenosine] activates RNase L. While the 5'-terminal and 2'-terminal adenosine N(6)-amino groups play a key role in binding to and activation of RNase L, the exocyclic amino function of the second adenylate (from the 5'-terminus) plays a relatively minor role in 2-5A's biological activity. To probe the available space proximal to the amino function of the central adenylate of 2-5A trimer during binding to RNase L, a variety of substituents were placed at that position. To accomplish this, the convertible building block 5'-O-dimethoxytrityl-3'-O-(tert-butyldimethylsilyl)-6-(2,4-dinitrophenyl)thioinosine 2'-(2-cyanoethylN,N-diisopropylphosphoramidite) was prepared as a synthon to introduce 6-(2,4-dinitrophenyl)thioinosine into the middle position of the 2-5A trimer during automated synthesis. Post-synthetic treatment with aqueous amines transformed the (2,4-dinitrophenyl)thioinosine into N(6)-substituted adenosines. Assays of these modified trimers for their ability to bind and activate RNase L showed that activation activity could be retained, albeit with some sacrifice compared to unmodified p5'A2'p5'A2'p5'A. Thus, the spatial domain about this N(6)-amino function could be available for modifications to enhance the biological potency of 2-5A analogues and to ligate 2-5A to targeting vehicles such as antisense molecules. 相似文献

Apoptosis of viral infected cells appears to be one defense strategy to limit viral infection. Interferon can also confer viral resistance by the induction of the 2-5A system comprised of 2'-5' oligoadenylate synthetase (OAS), and RNase L. Since rRNA is degraded upon activation of RNase L and during apoptosis and since both of these processes serve antiviral functions, we examined the role RNase L may play in cell death. Inhibition of RNase L activity, by transfection with a dominant negative mutant, blocked staurosporine-induced apoptosis of NIH3T3 cells and SV40-transformed BALB/c cells. In addition, K562 cell lines expressing inactive RNase L were more resistant to apoptosis induced by decreased glutathione levels. Hydrogen peroxide-induced death of NIH3T3 cells did not occur by apoptosis and was not dependent upon active RNAse L. Apoptosis regulatory proteins of the Bcl-2 family did not exhibit altered expression levels in the absence of RNase L activity. RNase L is required for certain pathways of cell death and may help mediate viral-induced apoptosis. 相似文献

A mouse cell line, which is unprotected by interferon against lytic virus infection, lacks ribonuclease F activity 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11

A mouse cell line, NIH 3T3, does not respond to some of the activities of interferon. Even after treatment with high concentrations of interferon the replication of lytic viruses, such as encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV) and vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) is not inhibited in these cells. In contrast, interferon treatment of these same cells results in the inhibition of Moloney murine leukemia virus (MMuLV) production. We have analyzed enzymatic pathways which are induced by interferon in these cells. After interferon treatment, the level of the (2'-5')oligoadenylate [(2'-5)An] synthetase activity and the phosphorylation of the 67000-dalton protein (P1) are enhanced in NIH 3T3 cells to approximately the same level as interferon-sensitive mouse L-cells. Moreover, NIH 3T3 and L-cells, contain approximately the same levels of enzymes which inactivate (2'-5')An. Both exogenously added (2'-5')A3 or double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) failed to inhibit protein synthesis in NIH 3T3 extracts even though they were potent inhibitors of L-cell extract-directed protein synthesis. Direct measurements of the (2'-5')An-dependent ribonuclease F (RNase F) failed to detect such activity in NIH 3T3 cells. Our results, therefore, suggest that the presence of RNase F activity is necessary for the interferon-induced antiviral activity against EMCV and against VSV. The induction of protein kinase activity by interferon treatment of NIH 3T3 cells appears to have no direct effect on EMCV and VSV replication. 相似文献

The treatment of Ehrlich ascites tumor cells with mouse interferon increases the level of the latent enzyme (2'-5')(A)n synthetase. If activated by double-stranded RNA, this catalyzes the synthesis from ATP of a series of 2'-5'-oligoadenylates: (2'-5')(A)n where n extends from 2 to about 15. We isolated (2'-5')(A)n synthetase in a homogeneous state. In the presence of double-stranded RNA, the purified enzyme can convert the large majority (about 97%) of the ATP into (2'-5')(A)n and pyrophosphate, although it does not cleave the pyrophosphate. The stoichiometry of the reaction can be formulated as: (n + I) ATP leads to (2'-5') pppA(pA)n + n pyrophosphate. Added pyrophosphate does not inhibit the synthesis of (2'-5')(A)n. The extent of the reverse reaction, i.e. the pyrophosphorolysis of (2'-5')(A)n, was below the level of detection under our conditions. The affinity of the enzyme for ATP is low: the rate of the reaction increases by about 10% when the concentration of ATP is increased from 5 mM to 10 mM. The optimal concentration of double-stranded RNA increases with the concentration of the enzyme. As tested at 0.4, 2, and 10 micrograms/ml of enzyme concentrations, close to maximal (2'-5')(A)n synthesis can be obtained if reovirus double-stranded RNA or poly(I) . poly(C) are used at about half the concentration (in w/v) of the enzyme. The plot of the reaction rate versus enzyme concentration is sigmoidal. It remains to be seen if this reflects on a cooperative behavior of the enzyme. 相似文献
