A target-agnostic screen identifies approved drugs to stabilize the endoplasmic reticulum-resident proteome.
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) dysregulation is associated with pathologies including neurodegenerative, muscular, and diabetic conditions. Depletion of ER calcium can lead to the loss of resident proteins in a process termed exodosis. To identify compounds that attenuate the redistribution of ER proteins under pathological conditions, we performed a quantitative high-throughput screen using the Gaussia luciferase (GLuc)-secreted ER calcium modulated protein (SERCaMP) assay, which monitors secretion of ER-resident proteins triggered by calcium depletion. We identify several clinically used drugs, including bromocriptine, and further characterize them using assays to measure effects on ER calcium, ER stress, and ER exodosis. Bromocriptine elicits protective effects in cell-based models of exodosis as well as in vivo models of stroke and diabetes. Bromocriptine analogs with reduced dopamine receptor activity retain similar efficacy in stabilizing the ER proteome, indicating a non-canonical mechanism of action. This study describes a strategic approach to identify small-molecule drugs capable of improving ER proteostasis in human disease conditions. |
Therapeutic candidates for the Zika virus identified by a high-throughput screen for Zika protease inhibitors.
When Zika virus emerged as a public health emergency there were no drugs or vaccines approved for its prevention or treatment. We used a high-throughput screen for Zika virus protease inhibitors to identify several inhibitors of Zika virus infection. We expressed the NS2B-NS3 Zika virus protease and conducted a biochemical screen for small-molecule inhibitors. A quantitative structure-activity relationship model was employed to virtually screen ∼138,000 compounds, which increased the identification of active compounds, while decreasing screening time and resources. Candidate inhibitors were validated in several viral infection assays. Small molecules with favorable clinical profiles, especially the five-lipoxygenase-activating protein inhibitor, MK-591, inhibited the Zika virus protease and infection in neural stem cells. Members of the tetracycline family of antibiotics were more potent inhibitors of Zika virus infection than the protease, suggesting they may have multiple mechanisms of action. The most potent tetracycline, methacycline, reduced the amount of Zika virus present in the brain and the severity of Zika virus-induced motor deficits in an immunocompetent mouse model. As Food and Drug Administration-approved drugs, the tetracyclines could be quickly translated to the clinic. The compounds identified through our screening paradigm have the potential to be used as prophylactics for patients traveling to endemic regions or for the treatment of the neurological complications of Zika virus infection. |
High-throughput screening identification of poliovirus RNA-dependent RNA polymerase inhibitors.
Viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRP) enzymes are essential for the replication of positive-strand RNA viruses and established targets for the development of selective antiviral therapeutics. In this work we have carried out a high-throughput screen of 154,267 compounds to identify poliovirus polymerase inhibitors using a fluorescence based RNA elongation assay. Screening and subsequent validation experiments using kinetic methods and RNA product analysis resulted in the identification of seven inhibitors that affect the RNA binding, initiation, or elongation activity of the polymerase. X-ray crystallography data show clear density for five of the compounds in the active site of the poliovirus polymerase elongation complex. The inhibitors occupy the NTP binding site by stacking on the priming nucleotide and interacting with the templating base, yet competition studies show fairly weak IC50 values in the low μM range. A comparison with nucleotide bound structures suggests that weak binding is likely due to the lack of a triphosphate group on the inhibitors. Consequently, the inhibitors are primarily effective at blocking polymerase initiation and do not effectively compete with NTP binding during processive elongation. These findings are discussed in the context of the polymerase elongation complex structure and allosteric control of the viral RdRP catalytic cycle. |
Synthesis and SAR studies of 1,4-benzoxazine MenB inhibitors: novel antibacterial agents against Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
Menaquinone is an essential component of the electron transport chain in many pathogens and consequently enzymes in the menaquinone biosynthesis pathway are potential drug targets for the development of novel antibacterial agents. In order to identify leads that target MenB, the 1,4-dihydroxy-2-naphthoyl-CoA synthase from Mycobacterium tuberculosis, a high-throughput screen was performed. Several 1,4-benzoxazines were identified in this screen and subsequent SAR studies resulted in the discovery of compounds with excellent antibacterial activity against M. tuberculosis H37Rv with MIC values as low as 0.6μg/ml. The 1,4-benzoxazine scaffold is thus a promising foundation for the development of antitubercular agents. |
Isolation and identification of antifungal fatty acids from the basidiomycete Gomphus floccosus.
Bioautography of extracts of the fruiting bodies of the basidiomycete Gomphus floccosus (Schw.) Singer indicated the presence of fungitoxic compounds in the ethyl acetate fraction against the plant pathogens Colletotrichum fragariae, Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, and Colletotrichum acutatum. Bioassay-guided fractionation of this fraction resulted in the isolation of the bioactive fatty acids (9 S,10 E,12 Z)-9-hydroxy-10,12-octadecadienoic acid (1), (9 E,11 Z)-13-oxo-9,11-octadecadienoic acid (2), and (10 E,12 E)-9-oxo-10,12-octadecadienoic acid (3). These three oxylipins were further evaluated for activity against a greater range of fungal plant pathogens (C. fragariae, C. gloeosporioides, C. acutatum, Botrytis cinerea, Fusarium oxysporum, Phomopsis obscurans, and Phomopsis viticola) in in vitro dose-response studies. Phomopis species were the most sensitive fungi to these compounds. At 120 h of treatment, the IC50 values for compounds 1, 2, and 3 for P. obscurans were 1.0, 4.5, and 23 microM, respectively, as compared to 1.1 microM for the captan positive control. |
Identification of 9-hydroxyoctadecadienoic acid and other oxidized free fatty acids as ligands of the G protein-coupled receptor G2A.
G2A is a G protein-coupled receptor that is predominantly expressed in lymphoid tissues and macrophages. G2A can be induced by diverse stimuli to cause cell cycle arrest in the G(2)/M phase in pro-B and T cells. G2A is also expressed in macrophages within atherosclerotic lesions, suggesting G2A involvement in atherosclerosis. Recently, G2A was discovered to possess proton-sensing ability. In this paper, we report another function of G2A, that is, as a receptor for 9-hydroxyoctadecadienoic acid (9-HODE) and other oxidized free fatty acids. G2A, expressed in CHO-K1 or HEK293 cells, showed 9-HODE-induced intracellular calcium mobilization, inositol phosphate accumulation, inhibition of cAMP accumulation, [(35)S]guanosine 5'-3-O-(thio)triphosphate binding, and MAP kinase activation. Furthermore, G2A was activated by various oxidized derivatives of linoleic and arachidonic acids, but it was weakly activated by cholesteryl-9-HODE. Oxidized phosphatidylcholine (1-palmitoyl-2-linoleoyl) when hydrolyzed with phospholipase A(2) also evoked intracellular calcium mobilization in G2A-expressing cells. These results indicate that G2A is activated by oxidized free fatty acids produced by oxidation and subsequent hydrolysis of phosphatidylcholine or cholesteryl linoleate. Thus, G2A might have a biological role in diverse pathological conditions including atherosclerosis. |
