Abstract This study of the full-length bifunctional nonstructural protein 3 from hepatitis C virus (HCV) has revealed that residues in the helicase domain affect the inhibition of the protease. Two residues (Q526 and H528), apparently located in the interface between the S2 and S4 binding pockets of the substrate binding site of the protease, were selected for modification, and three enzyme variants (Q526A, H528A and H528S) were expressed, purified and characterized. The substitutions resulted in indistinguishable K(m) values and slightly lower k(cat) values compared to the wild-type. The K(i) values for a series of structurally diverse protease inhibitors were affected by the substitutions, with increases or decreases up to 10-fold. The inhibition profiles for H528A and H528S were different, confirming that not only did the removal of the imidazole side chain have an effect, but also that minor differences in the nature of the introduced side chain influenced the characteristics of the enzyme. These results indicate that residues in the helicase domain of nonstructural protein 3 can influence the protease, supporting our hypothesis that full-length hepatitis C virus nonstructural protein 3 should be used for protease inhibitor optimization and characterization. Furthermore, the data suggest that inhibitors can be designed to interact with residues in the helicase domain, potentially leading to more potent and selective compounds.

Note
Basic Characteristics of Mutations
  • Mutation Site: The specific location in a gene or protein sequence where a change occurs.
  • Mutation Level: The level at which a mutation occurs, including the nucleotide or amino acid level.
  • Mutation Type: The nature of the mutation, such as missense mutation, nonsense mutation, synonymous mutation, etc.
  • Gene/Protein/Region: Refers to the specific region of the virus where the mutation occurs. Including viral genes, viral proteins, or a specific viral genome region. If the article does not specifically indicate the relationship between the mutation and its correspondence, the main
