Kinetic, stability, and structural changes in high-resolution crystal structures of HIV-1 protease with drug-resistant mutations L24I, I50V, and G73S.

ABSTRACT: The crystal structures, dimer stabilities, and kinetics have been analyzed for wild-type human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) protease (PR) and resistant mutants PR(L24I), PR(I50V), and PR(G73S) to gain insight into the molecular basis of drug resistance. The mutations lie in different structural regions. Mutation I50V alters a residue in the flexible flap that interacts with the inhibitor, L24I alters a residue adjacent to the catalytic Asp25, and G73S lies at the protein surface far from the inhibitor-binding site. PR(L24I) and PR(I50V), showed a 4% and 18% lower k(cat)/K(m), respectively, relative to PR. The relative k(cat)/K(m) of PR(G73S) varied from 14% to 400% when assayed using different substrates. Inhibition constants (K(i)) of the antiviral drug indinavir for the reaction catalyzed by the mutant enzymes were about threefold and 50-fold higher for PR(L24I) and PR(I50V), respectively, relative to PR and PR(G73S). The dimer dissociation constant (K(d)) was estimated to be approximately 20 nM for both PR(L24I) and PR(I50V), and below 5 nM for PR(G73S) and PR. Crystal structures of the mutants PR(L24I), PR(I50V) and PR(G73S) were determined in complexes with indinavir, or the p2/NC substrate analog at resolutions of 1.10-1.50 Angstrom. Each mutant revealed distinct structural changes relative to PR. The mutated residues in PR(L24I) and PR(I50V) had reduced intersubunit contacts, consistent with the increased K(d) for dimer dissociation. Relative to PR, PR(I50V) had fewer interactions of Val50 with inhibitors, in agreement with the dramatically increased K(i). The distal mutation G73S introduced new hydrogen bond interactions that can transmit changes to the substrate-binding site and alter catalytic activity. Therefore, the structural alterations observed for drug-resistant mutations were in agreement with kinetic and stability changes.

Project description:BackgroundStrategies to control HIV for improving the quality of patient lives have been aided by the Highly Active Anti-Retroviral Therapy (HAART), which consists of a cocktail of inhibitors targeting key viral enzymes. Numerous new drugs have been developed over the past few decades but viral resistances to these drugs in the targeted viral enzymes are increasingly reported. Nonetheless the acquired mutations often reduce viral fitness and infectivity. Viral compensatory secondary-line mutations mitigate this loss of fitness, equipping the virus with a broad spectrum of resistance against these drugs. While structural understanding of the viral protease and its drug resistance mutations have been well established, the interconnectivity and development of structural cross-resistance remain unclear. This paper reports the structural analyses of recent clinical mutations on the drug cross-resistance effects from various protease and protease inhibitors (PIs) complexes.MethodsUsing the 2015 updated clinical HIV protease mutations, we constructed a structure-based correlation network and a minimum-spanning tree (MST) based on the following features: (i) topology of the PI-binding pocket, (ii) allosteric effects of the mutations, and (iii) protease structural stability.Results and conclusionAnalyis of the network and the MST of dominant mutations conferring resistance to the seven PIs (Atazanavir-ATV, Darunavir-DRV, Indinavir-IDV, Lopinavir-LPV, Nelfinavir-NFV, Saquinavir-SQV, and Tipranavir-TPV) showed that cross-resistance can develop easily across NFV, SQV, LPV, IDV, and DRV, but not for ATV or TPV. Through estimation of the changes in vibrational entropies caused by each reported mutation, some secondary mutations were found to destabilize protease structure. Our findings provide an insight into the mechanism of PI cross-resistance and may also be useful in guiding the selection of PI in clinical treatment to delay the onset of cross drug resistance.
