Levintov L, Vashisth H. Adenine Methylation Enhances the Conformational Flexibility of an RNA Hairpin Tetraloop. J Phys Chem B 2024; 128:3157-3166.

Abstract
The N6-methyladenosine modification is one of the most abundant post-transcriptional modifications in ribonucleic acid (RNA) molecules. Using molecular dynamics simulations and alchemical free-energy calculations, we studied the structural and energetic implications of incorporating this modification in an adenine mononucleotide and an RNA hairpin structure. At the mononucleotide level, we found that the syn configuration is more favorable than the anti configuration by 2.05 ± 0.15 kcal/mol. The unfavorable effect of methylation was due to the steric overlap between the methyl group and a nitrogen atom in the purine ring. We then probed the effect of methylation in an RNA hairpin structure containing an AUCG tetraloop, which is recognized by a "reader" protein (YTHDC1) to promote transcriptional silencing of long noncoding RNAs. While methylation had no significant conformational effect on the hairpin stem, the methylated tetraloop showed enhanced conformational flexibility compared to the unmethylated tetraloop. The increased flexibility was associated with the outward flipping of two bases (A6 and U7) which formed stacking interactions with each other and with the C8 and G9 bases in the tetraloop, leading to a conformation similar to that in the RNA/reader protein complex. Therefore, methylation-induced conformational flexibility likely facilitates RNA recognition by the reader protein.

Abstract
SARS-CoV-2, the etiological agent responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic, is a member of the virus family Coronaviridae, known for relatively extensive (~30-kb) RNA genomes that not only encode for numerous proteins but are also capable of forming elaborate structures. As highlighted in this review, these structures perform critical functions in various steps of the viral life cycle, ultimately impacting pathogenesis and transmissibility. We examine these elements in the context of coronavirus evolutionary history and future directions for curbing the spread of SARS-CoV-2 and other potential human coronaviruses. While we focus on structures supported by a variety of biochemical, biophysical, and/or computational methods, we also touch here on recent evidence for novel structures in both protein-coding and noncoding regions of the genome, including an assessment of the potential role for RNA structure in the controversial finding of SARS-CoV-2 integration in “long COVID” patients. This review aims to serve as a consolidation of previous works on coronavirus and more recent investigation of SARS-CoV-2, emphasizing the need for improved understanding of the role of RNA structure in the evolution and adaptation of these human viruses.

Abstract
The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, and the likelihood of future coronavirus pandemics, emphasized the urgent need for development of novel antivirals. Small-molecule chemical probes offer both to reveal aspects of virus replication and to serve as leads for antiviral therapeutic development. Here, we report on the identification of amiloride-based small molecules that potently inhibit OC43 and SARS-CoV-2 replication through targeting of conserved structured elements within the viral 5′-end. Nuclear magnetic resonance–based structural studies revealed specific amiloride interactions with stem loops containing bulge like structures and were predicted to be strongly bound by the lead amilorides in retrospective docking studies. Amilorides represent the first antiviral small molecules that target RNA structures within the 5′ untranslated regions and proximal region of the CoV genomes. These molecules will serve as chemical probes to further understand CoV RNA biology and can pave the way for the development of specific CoV RNA–targeted antivirals.

Abstract
Small-molecules interacting with particular RNAs and modulating their functions are vital tools for RNA-targeting drug discovery. Considering the substantial distribution of the internal loops involving two contiguous cytosines opposite to a single-nucleotide base (Y/CC; Y = C, U or A) within the biologically significant functional RNAs, developing small-molecule probes targeting Y/CC sites should provide profound insight into their functions and roles in biochemical processes. Herein, we report ANP77 as the small-molecule probe for sensing RNA internal loop of Y/CC motifs and molecules binding to the motifs. The Y/CC motifs interact with ANP77 via the formation of a 1:1 complex and quench the fluorescence of ANP77. The flanking sequence-dependent binding to C/CC and U/CC sites was assessed by fluorometric screening, provided the binding heat maps. The quenching phenomena of ANP77 fluorescence was confirmed with intrinsic potential drug target pre-miR-1908. Finally, the binding-dependent fluorescence quenching of ANP77 was utilized in the fluorescence indicator displacement assay to demonstrate the potential of ANP77 as an indicator by using the RNA-binding drugs, risdiplam and branaplam.

Bis-3-Chloropiperidines Targeting TAR RNA as A Novel Strategy to Impair the HIV-1 Nucleocapsid Protein. Molecules 2021; 26:molecules26071874.

Abstract
Specific RNA sequences regulate functions essential to life. The Trans-Activation Response element (TAR) is an RNA stem-bulge-loop structure involved in several steps of HIV-1 replication. In this work, we show how RNA targeting can inhibit HIV-1 nucleocapsid (NC), a highly conserved protein known to catalyze nucleic acid melting and strand transfers during reverse transcription. Our RNA targeting strategy consists of the employment of bis-3-chloropiperidines (B-CePs) to impair RNA melting through bifunctional alkylation. Specific interactions between B-CePs and TAR RNA were analytically investigated by gel electrophoresis and mass spectrometry, allowing the elucidation of B-CePs' recognition of TAR, and highlighting an RNA-directed mechanism of protein inhibition. We propose that B-CePs can freeze TAR tridimensional conformation, impairing NC-induced dynamics and finally inhibiting its functions in vitro.

Abstract
The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, and the likelihood of future coronavirus pandemics, has rendered our understanding of coronavirus biology more essential than ever. Small molecule chemical probes offer to both reveal novel aspects of virus replication and to serve as leads for antiviral therapeutic development. The RNA-biased amiloride scaffold was recently tuned to target a viral RNA structure critical for translation in enterovirus 71, ultimately uncovering a novel mechanism to modulate positive-sense RNA viral translation and replication. Analysis of CoV RNA genomes reveal many conserved RNA structures in the 5'-UTR and proximal region critical for viral translation and replication, including several containing bulge-like secondary structures suitable for small molecule targeting. Following phylogenetic conservation analysis of this region, we screened an amiloride-based small molecule library against a less virulent human coronavirus, OC43, to identify lead ligands. Amilorides inhibited OC43 replication as seen in viral plaque assays. Select amilorides also potently inhibited replication competent SARS-CoV-2 as evident in the decreased levels of cell free virions in cell culture supernatants of treated cells. Reporter screens confirmed the importance of RNA structures in the 5'-end of the viral genome for small molecule activity. Finally, NMR chemical shift perturbation studies of the first six stem loops of the 5'-end revealed specific amiloride interactions with stem loops 4, 5a, and 6, all of which contain bulge like structures and were predicted to be strongly bound by the lead amilorides in retrospective docking studies. Taken together, the use of multiple orthogonal approaches allowed us to identify the first small molecules aimed at targeting RNA structures within the 5'-UTR and proximal region of the CoV genome. These molecules will serve as chemical probes to further understand CoV RNA biology and can pave the way for the development of specific CoV RNA-targeted antivirals.

Abstract
The problem of treating viral infections is extremely relevant due to both the emergence of new viral diseases and to the low effectiveness of existing approaches to the treatment of known viral infections. This review focuses on the application of porphyrin, chlorin, and phthalocyanine series for combating viral infections by chemical and photochemical inactivation methods. The purpose of this review paper is to summarize the main approaches developed to date in the chemical and photodynamic inactivation of human and animal viruses using porphyrins and their analogues and to analyze and discuss the information on viral targets and antiviral activity of porphyrins, chlorins, of their conjugates with organic/inorganic compounds obtained in the last 10–15 years in order to identify the most promising areas.

Abstract
Ribonucleic acids (RNAs) are conformationally flexible molecules that fold into three-dimensional structures and play an important role in different cellular processes as well as in the development of many diseases. RNA has therefore become an important target for developing novel therapeutic approaches. The biophysical processes underlying RNA function are often associated with rare structural transitions that play a key role in ligand recognition. In this work, we probe these rarely occurring transitions using nonequilibrium simulations by characterizing the dissociation of a ligand molecule from an HIV-1 viral RNA element. Specifically, we observed base-flipping rare events that are coupled with ligand binding/unbinding and also provided mechanistic details underlying these transitions.

Abstract
New RNA targeted ionic [Cu(DACH)2(H2O)2](mef)2, 1 and [Zn(DACH)2(H2O)2](mef)2, 2 drug conjugates were synthesized and characterized by spectroscopic techniques FT-IR, UV-vis, EPR in case of 1 and 1H and 13C NMR in case of 2, ESI-MS, thermogravimetric analysis and single-crystal X-ray structure determination in case of 1. The interaction studies of 1 & 2 with most likely drug targets like ctDNA and tRNA were performed which demonstrated that the complexes 1 and 2 exhibited strong preferential binding to tRNA as compared to ctDNA, Kb = 2.52(±0.04) × 105 M−1, 7.85(±0.02) × 104 M−1, respectively. Scanning electron microscopy analyses of complex-ctDNA/tRNA condensates suggested the interaction of complexes with ctDNA/tRNA had occurred, followed by lengthening of DNA double helix and bulge region of tRNA. Cytotoxic activity of 1 and 2 against human cancer cell lines namely; MCF-7 (breast), HeLa (cervical), MIA-PA-CA 2 (pancreatic), A-498 (kidney), Hep-G2 (hepatoma) was evaluated by SRB assay. The obtained results showed that copper complex 1 was an outstanding cytotoxic agent with remarkably good GI50 value (<10 μg ml−1) against the tested cancer cell lines except for MIA-PA-CA 2, while zinc complex 2 revealed moderate cytotoxicity against all the tested cancer cell lines. New RNA targeted ionic NSAID drug conjugates were evaluated for their antiproliferative activity against human cancer cell lines.![]()

Abstract
Since the development of the first docking program in 1982, the use of docking-based in silico screening for potentially bioactive molecule discovery has become a common strategy in academia and pharmaceutical industry. Up until recently, application of docking programs has largely focused on drugs binding to proteins. However, with the discovery of promising drug targets in nucleic acids, including RNA riboswitches, DNA G-quadruplexes, and extended repeats in RNA, there has been greater interests in developing drugs for nucleic acids. However, due to major biochemical and physical differences in charges, binding pockets, and solvation, existing docking programs, developed for proteins, face difficulties when adopted directly for nucleic acids. In this review, we cover the current field of in silico docking to nucleic acids, available programs, as well as challenges faced in the field.
