The evaluation of DNA-linked inhibitor antibody and AlphaScreen assays for high-throughput screening of compounds targeting the cap-binding domain in influenza a polymerase

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The PB2 subunit of the influenza virus polymerase complex is essential for viral replication, primarily through a mechanism known as cap-snatching. In this process, PB2 binds to the 5' cap structure of host pre-mRNAs, enabling the viral polymerase to hijack the host transcriptional machinery. This binding facilitates the cleavage and integration of the capped RNA fragment into viral mRNA, thereby promoting efficient viral replication. Inhibiting the PB2-cap interaction is therefore crucial, as it directly disrupts the viral replication cycle. Consequently, targeting PB2 with specific inhibitors is a promising strategy for antiviral drug development against influenza. However, there are currently no available methods for the high-throughput screening of potential inhibitors. The development of new inhibitor screening methods of potential PB2 binders is the focus of this study. In this study, we present two novel methods, DIANA and AlphaScreen, for screening influenza PB2 cap-binding inhibitors and evaluate their effectiveness compared to the established differential scanning fluorimetry (DSF) technique. Using a diverse set of substrates and compounds based on the previously described PB2 binder pimodivir, we thoroughly assessed the capabilities of these new methods. Our findings demonstrate that both DIANA and AlphaScreen are highly effective for PB2 inhibitor screening, offering distinct advantages over traditional techniques such as isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) and surface plasmon resonance (SPR). These advantages include improved scalability, reduced sample requirements, and the capacity for label-free detection. Notably, DIANA's ability to determine Ki values from a single-well measurement significantly enhances its practicality and efficiency in inhibitor screening. This research represents a significant step forward in the development of more efficient and scalable screening strategies, helping advance efforts in the discovery of antiviral drugs against influenza.
