摘要:
The present invention includes a crystal comprising a complex of the pro form of a matrix metalloprotease (proMMP) and a small-molecule allosteric processing inhibitor that inhibits that activation of the proMMP, methods for identifying small-molecule allosteric processing inhibitors that inhibit the activation of a proMMP, and methods of treatment using small-molecule allosteric processing inhibitors that inhibit the activation of a proMMP. The present invention relates to the crystal structure of a complex of proMMP9 bound to a small-molecule allosteric processing inhibitor that inhibits activation of proMMP9. The invention further relates to the use of the methods and the crystal and related structural information for designing, selecting and/or optimizing small-molecule allosteric processing inhibitors that inhibit activation of proMMP9 and proMMP9 homologues. The present invention also relates to the use of small-molecule allosteric processing inhibitors for the treatment of diseases mediated by inappropriate matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) activity.

摘要:
At low temperature, the protease of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is rendered highly active as a dimer of identical units. The protease is useful as a screening tool for HCMV antivirals as well as a diagnostic tool for diseases resulting from HCMV infection.
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.

摘要:
A method of purifying proteases from the Herpes Simplex Virus 1 and 2 is taught. A precursor protease is cloned in a host cell and then separated from the cell culture using cation exchange chromatography. The resulting protease is subjected to autoprocessing conditions and an autolytic cleavage occurs, resulting in mature protease.
