项目摘要
Over 90% of the world’s population is seropositive for three or more of the nine human herpesviruses (HHVs),
which possess the ability to establish lifelong latent infections that can be reactivated. Reactivation of HHV
infections is particularly serious in immunocompromised patients leading to disseminated life-threatening
infections. Although many of the anti HHV drug discovery efforts to date have focused on nucleoside/tide HHV
polymerase inhibitors, the large number of essential replication proteins encoded by the herpesviruses
provide excellent novel targets for antiviral therapy. New agents are needed to better prevent pathological
sequelae of reactivation as well as viral shedding and transmission to new hosts. The need for new modalities
of therapeutics to treat HHV infections underscores the importance of a more thorough understanding of HHV
DNA replication. In addition to the seven essential herpes simplex virus (HSV) replication proteins identified by
us and others, we have shown that the viral alkaline nuclease UL12 is also essential for the production of viral
DNA that can be packaged into infectious virus. UL12 interacts with the HSV ssDNA binding protein ICP8 to
form a two-component recombinase (exo/SSAP) that can promote single strand annealing (SSA). We have
suggested that HSV uses an unusual mechanism of DNA replication that has more in common with
bacteriophage than eukaryotic cells or other eukaryotic viruses. In fact, all DNA viruses of bacteria, protozoa,
plants, insects and mammals that replicate through concatemer formation encode a similar exo/SSAP complex.
We hypothesize that ICP8 and UL12 promote a series of reactions in which UL12 resects dsDNA leaving a 3’
ssDNA overhang that is recognized by ICP8. ICP8 then promotes annealing of the ssDNA to an active replication
fork to promote DNA synthesis by the viral DNA polymerase (UL30). UL30 is comprised of two functional
domains: a 3’ to 5’ exonuclease, PolExo, that plays a role in proofreading and the catalytic polymerase domain
required for extending primers during viral DNA replication. While the SSA model for DNA replication is consistent
with available evidence, questions remain about how UL12 and the two activities of the polymerase function
during DNA synthesis. In parallel studies, the Wright and Weller labs have been interested in both AN and PolExo
and their othologs from other HHVs as targets for novel antiviral therapeutics and have generated focused
libraries designed for their ability to engage a two-metal binding motif found in both AN and PolExo active sites.
We have identified several lead compounds that are potent antivirals and inhibit one or more of the exonuclease
activities and in some cases additional activity against polymerase activity itself. In this proposal we will use
our lead compounds as molecular probes to study mechanisms of viral DNA replication and to continue
our efforts to develop broad spectrum antiviral agents that inhibit AN, PolExo and/or Pol. Agents that can
inhibit more than one of these targets would be expected to increase the barrier to antiviral drug resistances.

我们假设ICP 8和UL 12促进了一系列反应,其中UL 12切除dsDNA,留下3'端。
