Popis: | The hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA-dependent RNA polymerase NS5B is an important target for antiviral therapies. NS5B is able to initiate viral RNA synthesis de novo and then switch to a fast and processive RNA elongation synthesis mode. The nucleotide analogue 2′- C -methyl CTP (2′- C -Me-CTP) is the active metabolite of NM283, a drug currently in clinical phase II trials. The resistance mutation S282T can be selected in HCV replicon studies. Likewise, 2′- O -Me nucleotides are active both against the purified polymerase and in replicon studies. We have determined the molecular mechanism by which the S282T mutation confers resistance to 2′-modified nucleotide analogues. 2′- C -Me-CTP is no longer incorporated during the initiation step of RNA synthesis and is discriminated 21-fold during RNA elongation by the NS5B S282T mutant. Strikingly, 2′- O -methyl CTP sensitivity does not change during initiation, but the analogue is no longer incorporated during elongation. This mutually exclusive resistance mechanism suggests not only that “2′-conformer” analogues target distinct steps in RNA synthesis but also that these analogues have interesting potential in combination therapies. In addition, the presence of the S282T mutation induces a general cost in terms of polymerase efficiency that may translate to decreased viral fitness: natural nucleotides become 5- to 20-fold less efficiently incorporated into RNA by the NS5B S282T mutant. As in the case for human immunodeficiency virus, our results might provide a mechanistic basis for the rational combination of drugs for low-fitness viruses. |
