摘要:
A method is provided for making synthetic capped RNAs. These compounds serve as substrates for the virally encoded endonuclease associated with influenza virus. We are able to assay for this unique and specific viral activity of cleavage of a capped RNA in vitro. Therefore, screening of inhibitors of this activity is possible. In addition, short non-extendible (due to their length or because of the modification of the 3'-end of the oligo, i.e. 3'-dA) RNAs are potent inhibitors of the cleavage of capped RNAs by influenza endonuclease. Finally, these compounds may be used to investigate viral and cellular mechanisms of transcription/translation or mRNA maturation.

The present invention provides ribonucleoside 2’,3’-cyclic acetals of structural formula I which are precursors or prodrugs of inhibitors of RNA-dependent RNA viral polymerase. These compounds are precursors of inhibitors of RNA-dependent RNA viral replication and are useful for the treatment of RNA-dependent RNA viral infection. They are particularly useful as precursors or prodrugs of inhibitors of hepatitis C virus (HCV) NS5B polymerase, as precursors or prodrugs of inhibitors of HCV replication, and/or for the treatment of hepatitis C infection. The invention also describes pharmaceutical compositions containing such ribonucleoside 2’,3’-cyclic acetals alone or in combination with other agents active against RNA-dependent RNA viral infection, in particular HCV infection. Also disclosed are methods of inhibiting RNA-dependent RNA polymerase, inhibiting RNA-dependent RNA viral replication, and/or treating RNA-dependent RNA viral infection with the ribonucleoside 2’,3’-cyclic acetals of the present invention.
摘要:
An assay for enzymes which act on substrates to produce a single-stranded oligonucleotide product has been developed which involves the DNA polymerase-catalyzed extension of the oligonucleotide cleavage product using labeled nucleotides and a DNA template containing a 3' region complementary to the oligonucleotide product joined to a 5' region consisting of repeated nucleotide residues. The DNA polymerase extension assay does not involve gel electrophoretic separation and is amenable to high volume screening of potential inhibitors. Other key features of the assay are that it monitors the substrate cleavage reaction only at the correct position in the sequence, thereby discriminating against nonspecific cleavage products, and that it is sensitive enough to detect 200 attomoles of product.
