  • Characterization of Resistance to a Potent D-Peptide HIV Entry Inhibitor
    Smith et al. Retrovirology (2019) 16:28 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12977-019-0489-7 Retrovirology RESEARCH Open Access Characterization of resistance to a potent D-peptide HIV entry inhibitor Amanda R. Smith1†, Matthew T. Weinstock1†, Amanda E. Siglin2, Frank G. Whitby1, J. Nicholas Francis1, Christopher P. Hill1, Debra M. Eckert1, Michael J. Root2 and Michael S. Kay1* Abstract Background: PIE12-trimer is a highly potent D-peptide HIV-1 entry inhibitor that broadly targets group M isolates. It specifcally binds the three identical conserved hydrophobic pockets at the base of the gp41 N-trimer with sub- femtomolar afnity. This extremely high afnity for the transiently exposed gp41 trimer provides a reserve of binding energy (resistance capacitor) to prevent the viral resistance pathway of stepwise accumulation of modest afnity- disrupting mutations. Such modest mutations would not afect PIE12-trimer potency and therefore not confer a selective advantage. Viral passaging in the presence of escalating PIE12-trimer concentrations ultimately selected for PIE12-trimer resistant populations, but required an extremely extended timeframe (> 1 year) in comparison to other entry inhibitors. Eventually, HIV developed resistance to PIE12-trimer by mutating Q577 in the gp41 pocket. Results: Using deep sequence analysis, we identifed three mutations at Q577 (R, N and K) in our two PIE12-trimer resistant pools. Each point mutant is capable of conferring the majority of PIE12-trimer resistance seen in the poly- clonal pools. Surface plasmon resonance studies demonstrated substantial afnity loss between PIE12-trimer and the Q577R-mutated gp41 pocket. A high-resolution X-ray crystal structure of PIE12 bound to the Q577R pocket revealed the loss of two hydrogen bonds, the repositioning of neighboring residues, and a small decrease in buried surface area.

Related Policies Plasma HIV-1 and HIV-2 RNA Quantification for HIV Infection Scientific Background Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) targets the immune system, eventually hindering the body’s ability to fight infections and diseases. If not treated, an HIV infection may lead to acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) which is a condition caused by the virus. There are two main types of HIV: HIV-1 and HIV-2; both are genetically different. HIV-1 is more common and widespread than HIV-2. HIV replicates rapidly; a replication cycle rate of approximately one to two days ensures that after a single year, the virus in an infected individual may be 200 to 300 generations removed from the initial infection-causing virus (Coffin & Swanstrom, 2013). This leads to great genetic diversity of each HIV infection in a single individual. As an RNA retrovirus, HIV requires the use of a reverse transcriptase for replication purposes. A reverse transcriptase is an enzyme which generates complimentary DNA from an RNA template. This enzyme is error-prone with the overall single-step point mutation rate reaching ∼3.4 × 10−5 mutations per base per replication cycle (Mansky & Temin, 1995), leading to approximately one genome in three containing a mutation after each round of replication (some of which confer drug resistance).

Received: 1 October 2009; in revised form: 30 November 2009 / Accepted: 1 December 2009 / Published: 3 December 2009 Abstract: Antiviral inhibitors of HIV-1 protease are a notable success of structure-based drug design and have dramatically improved AIDS therapy. Analysis of the structures and activities of drug resistant protease variants has revealed novel molecular mechanisms of drug resistance and guided the design of tight-binding inhibitors for resistant variants. The plethora of structures reveals distinct molecular mechanisms associated with resistance: mutations that alter the protease interactions with inhibitors or substrates; mutations that alter dimer stability; and distal mutations that transmit changes to the active site. These insights will inform the continuing design of novel antiviral inhibitors targeting resistant strains of HIV. Keywords: protease inhibitors; drug resistance; aspartic protease; molecular mechanism; darunavir 1. Introduction The structures and activities of HIV protease and its drug-resistant variants and their interactions with inhibitors have been studied for nearly 20 years in order to combat the challenges of AIDS antiviral therapy and the evolution of HIV drug resistance [1]. About 25 different antiretroviral drugs (ARV) are currently used in the combat against human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS).

  • Emergence of HIV-1 Drug Resistance Mutations in Mothers on Treatment
    Martin-Odoom et al. Virology Journal (2018) 15:143 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12985-018-1051-2 RESEARCH Open Access Emergence of HIV-1 drug resistance mutations in mothers on treatment with a history of prophylaxis in Ghana Alexander Martin-Odoom1* , Charles Addoquaye Brown1, John Kofi Odoom2, Evelyn Yayra Bonney2, Nana Afia Asante Ntim2, Elena Delgado3, Margaret Lartey4, Kwamena William Sagoe1, Theophilus Adiku1 and William Kwabena Ampofo2 Abstract Background: Antiretrovirals have been available in Ghana since 2003 for HIV-1 positive pregnant women for prevention of mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT). Suboptimal responses to treatment observed post-PMTCT interventions necessitated the need to investigate the profile of viral mutations generated. This study investigated HIV-1 drug resistance profiles in mothers in selected centres in Ghana on treatment with a history of prophylaxis. Methods: Genotypic Drug Resistance Testing for HIV-1 was carried out. Subtyping was done by phylogenetic analysis and Stanford HIV Database programme was used for drug resistance analysis and interpretation. To compare the significance between the different groups and the emergence of drug resistance mutations, p values were used. Results: Participants who had prophylaxis before treatment, those who had treatment without prophylaxis and those yet to initiate PMTCT showed 32% (8), 5% (3) and 15% (4) HIV-1 drug resistance associated mutations respectively. The differences were significant with p value < 0.05. Resistance Associated Mutations (RAMs) were seen in 14 participants (35%) to nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) and non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs). The most common NRTI mutation found was M184 V; K103 N and A98G were the most common NNRTI mutations seen.

Improving Viral Protease Inhibitors to Counter Drug Resistance Nese Kurt Yilmaz1, Ronald Swanstrom2, and Celia A. Schiffer1,* 1Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Pharmacology, University of Massachusetts Medical School, 364 Plantation Street, Worcester, MA 01605, USA 2Department of Biochemistry and Biophysics, and the UNC Center for AIDS Research, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Chapel Hill, North Carolina 27599, USA Abstract Drug resistance is a major problem in health care, undermining therapy outcomes and necessitating novel approaches to drug design. Extensive studies on resistance to viral protease inhibitors, particularly those of HIV-1 and hepatitis C virus (HCV) protease, revealed a plethora of information on the structural and molecular mechanisms underlying resistance. These insights led to several strategies to improve viral protease inhibitors to counter resistance, such as exploiting the essential biological function and leveraging evolutionary constraints. Incorporation of these strategies into structure-based drug design can minimize vulnerability to resistance, not only for viral proteases but for other quickly evolving drug targets as well, toward designing inhibitors one step ahead of evolution to counter resistance with more intelligent and rational design. Keywords drug resistance; protease inhibitors; HIV-1 protease; substrate envelope; structure based drug design; resistance mutations Drug Resistance and Viral Proteases as Drug Targets Drug resistance is a major health burden in a wide range of diseases from cancer to bacterial and viral infections, causing treatment failure as well as severe economic impact on the healthcare system.

Version: Jan 20th 2013 Corresponding author: Pleuni Pennings, email: [email protected] OR [email protected] address: Department of Biology 371 Serra St. Stanford University Stanford, CA 94305-5020 Keywords: HIV, drug resistance, resistance, antiviral therapy, ART Authors' contributions: PSP wrote the paper Conflicts of interest: there are no conflicts of interest HIV DRUG RESISTANCE: PROBLEMS AND PERSPECTIVES Abstract Access to combination antiretroviral treatment (ART) has improved greatly over recent years. At the end of 2011, more than eight million HIV infected people were receiving antiretroviral therapy in low-income and middle-income countries. ART generally works well in keeping the virus suppressed and the patient healthy. However, treatment only works as long as the virus is not resistant against the drugs used. In the last decades, HIV treatments have become better and better at slowing down the evolution of drug resistance, so that some patients are treated for many years without having any resistance problems. However, for some patients, especially in low-income countries, drug resistance is still a serious threat to their health. This essay will review what is known about transmitted and acquired drug resistance, multi-class drug resistance, resistance to newer drugs, resistance due to treatment for the prevention of mother-to-child transmission, the role of minority variants (low-frequency drug-resistance mutations), and resistance due to pre-exposure prophylaxis.

  • NNRTI) Resistance Mutations
    Nonnucleoside RT inhibitor (NNRTI) resistance mutations The NNRTIs bind to a hydrophobic pocket in the RT located between the β6-β10-β9 and β 2-β13-β14 sheets of the p66 subunit (Hsiou et al., 2001) (Figure 7). A small portion of the pocket is also formed by residues from the p51 subunit. The NNRTI-binding pocket is close to but not contiguous with, the active site. The NNRTIs inhibit HIV-1 replication allosterically by displacing the catalytic aspartate residues relative to the polymerase-binding site (Kohlstaedt et al., 1992; Esnouf et al., 1995; Spence et al., 1995). The hydrophobic NNRTI-binding pocket is less well conserved than the dNTP-binding site. Indeed, HIV-1 Group O and HIV-2 (Shih et al., 1991; Hizi et al., 1993; Yang et al., 1996; Descamps et al., 1997) are intrinsically resistant to most NNRTIs. A single mutation in the NNRTI-binding pocket may result in high-level resistance to one or more of the NNRTIs. Resistance usually emerges rapidly when NNRTIs are administered as monotherapy or in the presence of incomplete virus suppression, suggesting that resistance is caused by the selection of a pre-existing population of mutant viruses within an individual (Wei et al., 1995; Havlir et al., 1996; Jackson et al., 2000; Conway et al., 2001). Several studies have shown that a single dose of nevirapine used to prevent mother-to-child HIV transmission can select for NNRTI-resistant mutants that are detectable for at least two months (Jackson et al., 2000; Cunningham et al., 2002; Kantor et al., 2003).

Reports of Resistance to Neuraminidase Inhibitors in Pandemic H1N1 Virus 15 // An Overview of Antiviral Drug Resistance Data presented at Options for the Control of Influenza VII Introduction At the time when the neuraminidase inhibitors (NAIs) zanamivir and oseltamivir became available for general clinical use the Neuraminidase Inhibitor Susceptibility Network (NISN) was one of a very few independent groups conducting antiviral resistance surveillance and testing as well as related studies in the influenza field [1,2,3]. However, prompted by more recent events, including: human infection associated with the epizootic of highly pathogenic avian H5N1 influenza, the unexpected circulation of a seasonal H1N1 virus carrying the H275Y neuraminidase (NA) mutation conferring resistance to oseltamivir and then the emergence of another H1N1 virus (from swine) which resulted in the 2009 influenza pandemic, many laboratories worldwide, particularly those in the World Health Organization (WHO) Global Influenza Surveillance Network (GISN), have now carried out surveillance of drug resistance of influenza viruses and studied the properties of those resistant viruses. As a consequence, much new data on drug resistance of influenza viruses and related topics were presented at the “Options VII” conference in September 2010; here NISN summarizes and comments on the new findings.

Here We provide a basis for understanding the occurrence and development of HIV-1 resistance in Yunnan and a theoretical foundational for strategy to delay HIV-1 drug resistance and achieve successful individualized treatment. Methods: Plasma samples from different cities/prefectures were collected at Yunnan Provincial Hospital of Infectious Disease from January 2010 to September 2016, and those from drug-resistant individuals were genotyped using in-house assays, 88 patients were selected for the study who had been on treatment for ≥6 months (and for whom drug resistance was then measured), and each patient had at least 3 genotype resistance tests and who were enrolled to analyze mutation and evolution of HIV resistance. Results: 264 Pol sequences of 88 patients were obtained. Drug resistance levels to eight drugs increased to varying degrees with prolonged treatment. Resistance to efavirenz (EFV) and etravirine (ETR) showed the highest change, comparisons of resistant changes to second and first and to third and second agents showed altered level of drug resistance were 25 and 20 cases, 28 and 18 cases, respectively.
