HRV14/SDZ 35-682 COMPLEX
Structural highlights
FunctionPOLG_HRV14 Capsid proteins VP1, VP2, VP3 and VP4 form a closed capsid enclosing the viral positive strand RNA genome. VP4 lies on the inner surface of the protein shell formed by VP1, VP2 and VP3. All the three latter proteins contain a beta-sheet structure called beta-barrel jelly roll. Together they form an icosahedral capsid (T=3) composed of 60 copies of each VP1, VP2, and VP3, with a diameter of approximately 300 Angstroms. VP1 is situated at the 12 fivefold axes, whereas VP2 and VP3 are located at the quasi-sixfold axes (By similarity). The capsid interacts with human ICAM1 to provide virion attachment to target cell. This attachment induces virion internalization predominantly through clathrin- and caveolin-independent endocytosis. VP0 precursor is a component of immature procapsids (By similarity). Protein 2A is a cysteine protease that is responsible for the cleavage between the P1 and P2 regions. It cleaves the host translation initiation factor EIF4G1, in order to shut down the capped cellular mRNA transcription (By similarity). Protein 2B affects membrane integrity and cause an increase in membrane permeability (By similarity). Protein 2C associates with and induces structural rearrangements of intracellular membranes. It displays RNA-binding, nucleotide binding and NTPase activities (By similarity). Protein 3A, via its hydrophobic domain, serves as membrane anchor (By similarity). Protein 3C is a cysteine protease that generates mature viral proteins from the precursor polyprotein. In addition to its proteolytic activity, it binds to viral RNA, and thus influences viral genome replication. RNA and substrate bind co-operatively to the protease (By similarity). RNA-directed RNA polymerase 3D-POL replicates genomic and antigenomic RNA by recognizing replications specific signals (By similarity). Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.

Publication Abstract from PubMedSDZ 35-682 is a potent and selective inhibitor of the replication of members of the picornavirus group. It inhibits several rhinovirus serotypes and echovirus 9 at concentrations as low as 0.1 micrograms/ml, without exerting any effect on cell proliferation up to 30 micrograms/ml. As observed with other capsid-binding antipicornavirus compounds, there is a wide variation in sensitivity of the different serotypes within the rhinovirus group. The point of interference of SDZ 35-682 in a single cycle of virus growth is an early event taking place before 2 or 3 h of echo- or rhinovirus replication, respectively. By incorporation of neutral red into the viral capsid and measurement of acquisition of photoresistance it is shown that uncoating of echovirus 9 is inhibited by SDZ 35-682. In addition, efficiency of adsorption of echovirus 9 is reduced by SDZ 35-682. To demonstrate that SDZ 35-682, like other uncoating inhibitors of picornaviruses, binds to the hydrophobic pocket beneath the canyon floor co-crystallization with HRV 14 was performed. Considerable conformational changes occur in VP1 in the HRV 14/SDZ 35-682 complex. SDZ 35-682 is 19 A long from end to end and thus fills the entire hydrophobic pocket including its innermost end; it is less flexible than other long antiviral agents. It has been suggested that compounds filling the entire hydrophobic pocket will affect the uncoating process of the virion. Thus, inhibition of viral uncoating, as demonstrated with echovirus 9, probably is the predominant mode of action of SDZ 35-682.
