X-RAY CRYSTALLOGRAPHIC STRUCTURE OF A COMPLEX BETWEEN A SYNTHETIC PROTEASE OF HUMAN IMMUNODEFICIENCY VIRUS 1 AND A SUBSTRATE-BASED HYDROXYETHYLAMINE INHIBITOR
Overview
The structure of a crystal complex of the chemically synthesized protease, of human immunodeficiency virus 1 with a heptapeptide-derived inhibitor, bound in the active site has been determined. The sequence of the, inhibitor JG-365 is Ac-Ser-Leu-Asn-Phe-psi[CH(OH)CH2N]-Pro-Ile-Val-OMe;, the Ki is 0.24 nM. The hydroxyethylamine moiety, in place of the normal, scissile bond of the substrate, is believed to mimic a tetrahedral, reaction intermediate. The structure of the complex has been refined to an, R factor of 0.146 at 2.4-A resolution by using restrained least squares, with rms deviations in bond lengths of 0.02 A and bond angles of 4. The, bound inhibitor diastereomer has the S configuration at the, hydroxyethylamine chiral carbon, and the hydroxyl group is positioned, between the active site aspartate carboxyl groups within hydrogen bonding, distance. Comparison of this structure with a reduced peptide bond, inhibitor-protease complex indicates that these contacts confer the, exceptional binding strength of JG-365.
