A Novel Potent and Highly Specific Inhibitor against Influenza Viral N1-N9 Neuraminidases: Insight into Neuraminidase-inhibitor Interactions.
JOURNAL OF MEDICINAL CHEMISTRY(2016)
Abstract
People throughout the world continue to be at risk for death from influenza A virus, which is always creating a new variant. Here we present a new effective and specific anti influenza viral neuraminidase (viNA) inhibitor, 9-cyclo-propylcarbonylamino-4-guanidino-Neu5Ac2en (cPro-GUN). Like zanamivir, it is highly effective against N1-N9 avian and N1-N2 human viNAs, including H274Y oseltamivir-resistant N1 viNA, due to its C-6 portion still being anchored in the active site, different from the disruption of oseltamivir's C-6 anchoring by H274Y mutation. Unlike zanamivir, no sialidase inhibitory activity has been observed for cPro-GUN against huNeu1-huNeu4 enzymes. Broad efficacy of cPro-GUN against avian and human influenza viruses in cell cultures comparable to its sialidase inhibitory activities makes cPro-GUN ideal for further development for safe therapeutic or prophylactic use against both seasonal and pandemic influenza.
