    Abstract The challenge in vaccine development, along with drug resistance issues, has encouraged the search for new anti-influenza drugs targeting different viral proteins. Hemagglutinin (HA) glycoprotein, crucial in the viral replication cycle, has emerged as a promising therapeutic target. CBS1117 and JNJ4796 were reported to exhibit similar potencies against infectious group 1 influenza, which included H1 and H5 HAs; however, their potencies were significantly reduced against group 2 HA. This study aims to explore the molecular binding mechanisms and group specificity of these fusion inhibitors against both group 1 (H5) and group 2 (H3) HA influenza viruses using molecular dynamics simulations. CBS1117 and JNJ4796 exhibit stronger interactions with key residues within the H5 HA binding pocket compared to H3-ligand complexes. Hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interactions involving residues, such as H38

    Abstract Recently, the H3N2 influenza outbreak has caused serious global public health concern for future control of the next influenza pandemic. Since using current anti-influenza drugs targeting neuraminidase (oseltamivir and zanamivir) and the proton M2 channel (amantadine and rimantadine) leads to drug resistance, it is essential to seek new anti-viral agents that act on additional viral targets. Hemagglutinin (HA), a glycoprotein embedded in the viral surface and playing a critical role in influenza the viral replication cycle has become an attractive target. This work investigates the molecular binding mechanism of HA H3N2 of influenza virus complexed with the fusion inhibitor, arbidol and its derivative (der-arbidol), by means of molecular dynamics simulation. The result showed that the arbidol derivative could form many and strong hydrogen bonds with the HA surrounding amino acids comprising GLU103

    Abstract Hepatitis C virus (HCV) NS3/4A serine protease is a promising drug target for the discovery of anti-HCV drugs. However, its amino acid mutations, particularly A156T, commonly lead to rapid emergence of drug resistance. Paritaprevir and glecaprevir, the newly FDA-approved HCV drugs, exhibit distinct resistance profiles against the A156T mutation of HCV NS3/4A serine protease. To illustrate their different molecular resistance mechanisms, molecular dynamics simulations and binding free energy calculations were carried out on the two compounds complexed with both wild-type (WT) and A156T variants of HCV NS3/4A protease. QM/MM-GBSA-based binding free energy calculations revealed that the binding affinities of paritaprevir and glecaprevir towards A156T NS3/4A were significantly reduced by ∼4 kcal/mol with respect to their WT complexes, which were in line with the experimental resistance folds. Moreover, the relatively weak intermolecular interactions with amino acids such as H57, R155, and T156 of NS3 protein, the steric effect and the destabilized protein binding surface, which is caused by the loss of salt bridge between R123 and D168, are the main contributions for the higher fold-loss in potency of glecaprevir due to A156T mutation. An insight into the difference of molecular mechanism of drug resistance against the A156T substitution among the two classes of serine protease inhibitors could be useful for further optimization of new generation HCV NS3/4A inhibitors with enhanced inhibitory potency.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

    Abstract Hepatitis C virus (HCV) NS3/4A protease is an attractive target for the development of antiviral therapy. However, the evolution of antiviral drug resistance is a major problem for treatment of HCV infected patients. Understanding of drug-resistance mechanisms at molecular level is therefore very important for the guidance of further design of antiviral drugs with high efficiency and specificity. Paritaprevir is a potent inhibitor against HCV NS3/4A protease genotype 1a. Unfortunately, this compound is highly susceptible to the substitution at D168 in the protease. In this work, molecular dynamics simulations of paritaprevir complexed with wild-type (WT) and two mutated strains (D168 N and D168Y) were carried out. Due to such mutations, the inhibitor-protein hydrogen bonding between them was weakened and the salt-bridge network among residues R123, R155 and D168 responsible for inhibitor binding was disrupted. Moreover, the per-residue free energy decomposition suggested that the main contributions from key residues such as Q80, V132, K136, G137 and R155 were lost in the D168 N/Y mutations. These lead to a lower binding affinity of paritaprevir for D168 N/Y variants of the HCV NS3/4A protease, consistent with the experimental data. This detailed information could be useful for further design of high potency anti-HCV NS3/4A inhibitors.
