Effectiveness of nonpeptide clinical inhibitor TMC-114 on HIV-1 protease with highly drug resistant mutations D30N, I50V, and L90M.

ABSTRACT: The potent new antiviral inhibitor TMC-114 (UIC-94017) of HIV-1 protease (PR) has been studied with three PR variants containing single mutations D30N, I50V, and L90M, which provide resistance to the major clinical inhibitors. The inhibition constants (K(i)) of TMC-114 for mutants PR(D30N), PR(I50V), and PR(L90M) were 30-, 9-, and 0.14-fold, respectively, relative to wild-type PR. The molecular basis for the inhibition was analyzed using high-resolution (1.22-1.45 A) crystal structures of PR mutant complexes with TMC-114. In PR(D30N), the inhibitor has a water-mediated interaction with the side chain of Asn30 rather than the direct interaction observed in PR, which is consistent with the relative inhibition. Similarly, in PR(I50V) the inhibitor loses favorable hydrophobic interactions with the side chain of Val50. TMC-114 has additional van der Waals contacts in PR(L90M) structure compared to the PR structure, leading to a tighter binding of the inhibitor. The observed changes in PR structure and activity are discussed in relation to the potential for development of resistant mutants on exposure to TMC-114.

Project description:Drug-resistance is a serious problem for treatment of the HIV/AIDS pandemic. Potent clinical inhibitors of HIV-1 protease show several orders of magnitude worse inhibition of highly drug-resistant variants. Hence, the structure and enzyme activities were analyzed for HIV protease mutant HIV-1 protease (EC 3.4.23.16) (PR) with 22 mutations (PRS5B) from a clinical isolate that was selected by machine learning to represent high-level drug-resistance. PRS5B has 22 mutations including only one (I84V) in the inhibitor binding site; however, clinical inhibitors had poor inhibition of PRS5B activity with kinetic inhibition value (Ki ) values of 4-1000 nm or 18- to 8000-fold worse than for wild-type PR. High-resolution crystal structures of PRS5B complexes with the best inhibitors, amprenavir (APV) and darunavir (DRV) (Ki ~ 4 nm), revealed only minor changes in protease-inhibitor interactions. Instead, two distinct clusters of mutations in distal regions induce coordinated conformational changes that decrease favorable internal interactions across the entire protein subunit. The largest structural rearrangements are described and compared to other characterized resistant mutants. In the protease hinge region, the N83D mutation eliminates a hydrogen bond connecting the hinge and core of the protease and increases disorder compared to highly resistant mutants PR with 17 mutations and PR with 20 mutations with similar hinge mutations. In a distal β-sheet, mutations G73T and A71V coordinate with accessory mutations to bring about shifts that propagate throughout the subunit. Molecular dynamics simulations of ligand-free dimers show differences consistent with loss of interactions in mutant compared to wild-type PR. Clusters of mutations exhibit both coordinated and antagonistic effects, suggesting PRS5B may represent an intermediate stage in the evolution of more highly resistant variants. DATABASES: Structural data are available in Protein Data Bank under the accession codes 6P9A and 6P9B for PRS5B/DRV and PRS5B/APV, respectively.

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.

Project description:Drug resistance is a serious problem for controlling the HIV/AIDS pandemic. Current antiviral drugs show several orders of magnitude worse inhibition of highly resistant clinical variant PRS17 of HIV-1 protease compared with wild-type protease. We have analyzed the effects of a common resistance mutation G48V in the flexible flaps of the protease by assessing the revertant PRS17V48G for changes in enzyme kinetics, inhibition, structure, and dynamics. Both PRS17 and the revertant showed about 10-fold poorer catalytic efficiency than wild-type enzyme (0.55 and 0.39 μM-1min-1 compared to 6.3 μM-1min-1). Clinical inhibitors, amprenavir and darunavir, showed 2-fold and 8-fold better inhibition, respectively, of the revertant than of PRS17, although the inhibition constants for PRS17V48G were still 25 to 1,200-fold worse than for wild-type protease. Crystal structures of inhibitor-free revertant and amprenavir complexes with revertant and PRS17 were solved at 1.3-1.5 Å resolution. The amprenavir complexes of PRS17V48G and PRS17 showed no significant differences in the interactions with inhibitor, although changes were observed in the conformation of Phe53 and the interactions of the flaps. The inhibitor-free structure of the revertant showed flaps in an open conformation, however, the flap tips do not have the unusual curled conformation seen in inhibitor-free PRS17. Molecular dynamics simulations were run for 1 μs on the two inhibitor-free mutants and wild-type protease. PRS17 exhibited higher conformational fluctuations than the revertant, while the wild-type protease adopted the closed conformation and showed the least variation. The second half of the simulations captured the transition of the flaps of PRS17 from a closed to a semi-open state, whereas the flaps of PRS17V48G tucked into the active site and the wild-type protease retained the closed conformation. These results suggest that mutation G48V contributes to drug resistance by altering the conformational dynamics of the flaps.
