Resistant variants of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) have been selected by limited passage in MT4 cells of both wild-type and 3'-azido-3'-deoxythymidine (AZT, zidovudine)-resistant strains with the nucleoside analogues (-)-2'-deoxy-3'-thiacytidine (3TC) and (-)-2'-deoxy-5-fluoro-3'-thiacytidine (FTC). Virus variants selected independently were crossresistant to both inhibitors. This rapid in vitro selection of resistant virus has not previously been seen with nucleoside analogues but is reminiscent of that observed with the nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors. However, passage of wild-type virus with a combination of AZT and FTC appreciably delayed emergence of FTC-resistant virus. DNA sequence analysis of the reverse transcriptase coding region from FTC-resistant virus revealed changes at codon 184 in the highly conserved Tyr, Met, Asp, Asp (YMDD) region. When the mutation Met184-->Val was introduced into the infectious clone HXB2, this change alone accounted for the resistance (> 1000-fold) seen with both 3TC and FTC, and for a 5- to 15-fold reduction in sensitivity to their (+) enantiomers. It had no effect on susceptibility to AZT or nevirapine and minimal effect on susceptibility to 2',3'-dideoxyinosine and 2',3'-dideoxycytidine. To determine the influence of this mutation in a background of mutations conferring resistance to AZT and nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors, a series of HIV-1 variants were created by site-directed mutagenesis. All mutants with Met184-->Val were cross-resistant to 3TC and FTC. The Met184-->Val mutation did not influence nevirapine resistance, but resistance to AZT was suppressed. Similar suppression of AZT resistance was seen with Tyr181-->Cys. Interestingly, when both Met184-->Val and Tyr181-->Cys substitutions were present, highly resistant virus reverted to complete AZT sensitivity. Assessment of the interactive effects of multiple drug-resistance mutations may help to establish a rationale for using these drugs in the future therapy of HIV disease.

Serial passage of HIV-1 in CEM or MT-4 cell cultures in the presence of different HIV-1-specific reverse transcriptase (RT) inhibitors yielded mutant viruses which were resistant (i.e., 200- to 1000-fold less sensitive) to the homologous compounds. The RT of these mutant HIV-1 strains showed different amino acid substitutions depending on the class of the HIV-1-specific RT inhibitors. The following amino acid substitutions were found: 138 Glu-->Lys (TSAO-T), 181 Tyr-->Cys (nevirapine), 181 Tyr-->Cys (pyridinone), and 100 Leu-->Ile (TIBO R82150). Four TIBO (R82913)-resistant HIV-1 strains contained different amino acid substitutions: 103 Lys-->Asn (strain 2), 100 Leu-->Ile and 138 Glu-->Lys (strain B02), 100 Leu-->Ile and 181 Tyr-->Cys (strain 1), 100 Leu-->Ile and 188 Tyr-->His (strain B22). The level of cross-resistance (or sensitivity) highly depends on the nature of the amino acid substitutions. As a rule, the TSAO-resistant HIV-1 strains (138 Glu-->Lys) and TIBO (R82150 or R82913)-resistant HIV-1 strains (Leu 100-->Ile or 103 Lys-->Asn) are sensitive to the other HIV-1-specific RT inhibitors, whereas the amino acid change 181 Tyr-->Cys results in a significant reduction of sensitivity to all classes of the HIV-1-specific RT inhibitors.

Bisheteroarylpiperazines are potent inhibitors of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) reverse transcriptase (RT). We describe a novel bisheteroarylpiperazine, U-90152 [1-(5-methanesulfonamido-1H-indol-2-yl-carbonyl)-4-[3-(1-methyl eth yl-amino)pyridinyl]piperazine], which inhibited recombinant HIV-1 RT at a 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50) of 0.26 microM (compared with IC50s of > 440 microM for DNA polymerases alpha and delta). U-90152 blocked the replication in peripheral blood lymphocytes of 25 primary HIV-1 isolates, including variants that were highly resistant to 3'-azido-2',3'-dideoxythymidine (AZT) or 2',3'-dideoxyinosine, with a mean 50% effective dose of 0.066 +/- 0.137 microM. U-90152 had low cellular cytotoxicity, causing less than 8% reduction in peripheral blood lymphocyte viability at 100 microM. In experiments assessing inhibition of the spread of HIV-1IIIB in cell cultures, U-90152 was much more effective than AZT. When approximately 500 HIV-1IIIB-infected MT-4 cells were mixed 1:1,000 with uninfected cells, 3 microM AZT delayed the evidence of rapid viral growth for 7 days. In contrast, 3 microM U-90152 totally prevented the spread of HIV-1, and death and/or dilution of the original inoculum of infected cells prevented renewed viral growth after U-90152 was removed at day 24. The combination of U-90152 and AZT, each at 0.5 microM, also totally prevented viral spread. Finally, although the RT amino acid substitutions K103N (lysine 103 to asparagine) and Y181C (tyrosine 181 to cysteine), which confer cross-resistance to several nonnucleoside inhibitors, also decrease the potency of U-90152, this drug retains significant activity against these mutant RTs in vitro (IC50s, approximately 8 microgramM).

Nevirapine is a highly potent and specific inhibitor of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) polymerase, but is inactive against HIV-2 and other polymerase. Previous studies demonstrated that residues 176-190 of HIV-1 reverse transcriptase (RT) can confer nevirapine sensitivity to HIV-2 RT. To better characterize the role of this sequence in HIV-1 RT, we have progressively substituted residues 176-190 of HIV-2 RT for those of HIV-1 RT and monitored the impact on the kinetic properties; inhibitory activity of nevirapine (11-cyclopropyl-5,11-dihydro-4-methyl-6H-dipyrido[2,3-b:2',3'-e] [1,4]diazepin-6-one), E-BPU (5-ethyl-1-benzyloxymethyl-6-(phenylthio)-uracil), and TIBO-R82150 ((+)-S-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-5-methyl-6-(3-methyl-2-butenyl)imidazo[4,5,1-j k] [1,4]benzodiazepin-2(1H)-thione); and inhibitor-induced fluorescence changes of the mutant enzymes. The study revealed that in addition to Try-181 and Tyr-188, a new amino acid residue (Gly-190) plays an important role in determining susceptibility to nevirapine and E-BPU, but not to TIBO-R82150. These data argue that these non-nucleoside inhibitors fit differently, even though they share a common binding pocket. Nevirapine was seen to exert inhibitory activity by altering the interaction of the enzyme with the template-primer. Kinetic parameters were modulated by the template (DNA versus RNA) as well as by some of the mutations.

Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1)-infected CEM cells were treated by the HIV-1-specific inhibitors bis-heteroarylpiperazine (BHAP), 4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-5-methylimidazo[4,5,1-jk][1,4]benzodiazepin-2(1 H)-on e (TIBO) R82913, nevirapine, and the N3-methylthymine derivative of [2',5'-bis-O-(tert-butyldimethylsilyl)-beta-D-ribofuranosyl]-3'-spiro- 5''-(4''-amino-1'',2''-oxathiole-2'',2''-dioxide) (TSAO-m3T), as single agents or in combination, at escalating concentrations. When used individually, the compounds led to the emergence of drug-resistant virus strains within two to five subcultivations. The resulting strains were designated HIV-1/BHAP, HIV-1/TIBO, HIV-1/Nev, and HIV-1/TSAO-m3T, respectively. The mutant viruses showed the following amino acid substitutions in their reverse transcriptase (RT): Leu-100-->Ile for HIV-1/BHAP; Lys-103-->Asn for HIV-1/TIBO; Val-106-->Ala for HIV-1/Nev; and Glu-138-->Lys for HIV-1/TSAO-m3T. Both the Tyr-181-->Cys and Val-106-->Ala mutations were found in another mutant emerging following treatment with nevirapine at escalating concentrations. The BHAP-resistant virus remained fully sensitive to the inhibitory effects of nevirapine and TSAO-m3T, whereas the TSAO-m3T-resistant virus remained fully sensitive to the inhibitory effects of nevirapine and BHAP. When different pairs of nonnucleoside RT inhibitors (i.e., BHAP plus TSAO-m3T, nevirapine plus TSAO-m3T, TIBO plus TSAO-m3T, nevirapine plus TIBO, and BHAP plus nevirapine) were used, resistant virus emerged as fast as with single-drug therapy. In all cases the Tyr-181-->Cys mutation appeared; the virus showed markedly reduced sensitivity to all HIV-1-specific inhibitors but retained sensitivity to 2',3'-dideoxynucleoside analogs such as zidovudine, ddC, and ddI. Our findings argue against simultaneous combination of two different nonnucleoside RT inhibitors that are unable to inhibit HIV-1 mutant strains containing the Tyr-181-->Cys mutation when administered as single drugs.

Of the class of the 1-[(2-hydroxyethoxy)methyl]-6-(phenylthio)-thymine (HEPT) derivatives, several congeners were found to inhibit (at 50% effective concentrations ranging from 0.02 to 0.6 microgram/ml) the replication of mutant human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) strains that had been selected for resistance against bis(heteroaryl)piperazine, tetrahydroimidazo[4,5,1-jk] [1,4]benzodiazepin-2(1H)-thiones (TIBO), nevirapine, [2',5'-bis-O-(tert- butyldimethylsilyl)-beta-D-ribofuranosyl]-3'-spiro-5''-(4''-amino- 1'',2'' -oxathiole-2'',2''-dioxide) (TSAO), or pyridinone and showed amino acid substitutions at positions 100, 103, 106, 138, and 181, respectively. When HIV-1 strains were selected for resistance against three different HEPT derivatives [i.e., HEPT and its derivatives 5-ethyl-1-ethoxymethyl-6-benzyluracil(E-EBU) and 5-ethyl-1-ethoxymethyl-6-(3,5-dimethylbenzyl)uracil (EBU-dM)], HEPT selected for the mutation 188-Tyr-->His, E-EBU for 181-Tyr-->Cys, and E-EBU-dM for 106-Val-->Ala, in the reverse transcriptase of the mutant viruses. These virus strains showed markedly decreased sensitivity to HEPT derivatives. Moreover, the HEPT-resistant virus strains also proved cross-resistant to virtually all other HIV-1-specific inhibitors, including TIBO, nevirapine, and TSAO.

Upon in vitro processing of the recombinant HIV-1/gag p24 protein, expressed in Escherichia coli as a fusion protein, by HIV-1 protease, a cleavage site within the staphylococcal protein A fusion partner was found. N-terminal sequencing of the protein A fragments showed that HIV-1 protease cleavage occurred between phenylalanine-235 and tyrosine-236 within the sequence Gln-Asn-Ala-Phe/Tyr-Glu-Ile-Leu (QNAF/YEIL) in the IgG-binding domain C of the protein A encoded by the pRIT2T fusion gene vector (Pharmacia). Results presented here have proven that the protease-sensitive site is viable in vitro on the protein A alone and other chimeric protein, protein A/beta-galactosidase. A possible significance of this phenomenon in biotechnology work is discussed.

Using the CD4+ human T cell clone P28, we demonstrated that the HIV-1 glycoprotein gp120 inhibited CD3-induced inositol trisphosphate production, calcium influx and T cell proliferation. Additionally, gp120 was shown to dissociate the tyrosine kinase p56lck from CD4 in CEM cells, with a concommittant inhibition of CD4-linked kinase activity. We have addressed the question whether disruption of CD4/p56lck or CD4/CD3-T cell receptor interactions, or both, could account for the inhibitory effect of gp120 in P28 cells. By comparing the effects of various anti-CD4 monoclonal antibodies (mAb) with those of gp120, we show that gp120 and IOT4a modulate CD4 expression, and decrease CD4-associated p56lck and CD4-linked kinase activity at the plasma membrane. In contrast, OKT4A and OKT4 anti-CD4 mAb have no inhibitory effect. Interestingly, gp120 also inhibits CD3-induced Lck activation and cellular tyrosine phosphorylation, particularly of phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C-gamma-1. Kinetic experiments reveal that the inhibitory effect of gp120 on CD3-induced tyrosine phosphorylation appears as early as 30 min, but culminate when CD4-p56lck complexes disappear from the cell surface after 4 h. These results suggest that a negative signal is triggered by gp120 that results, after a few hours, in down-modulation of CD4-p56lck complexes and the impairment of CD3 signaling. Supporting this hypothesis, gp120 inhibits CD3-linked kinase activity as shown by the inhibition of the phosphorylation of CD3 chains, leading to the inhibition of subsequent signal transduction.

Mutations of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) protease at four positions, Val82, Asp30, Gly48, and Lys45 were analyzed for the resulting effects on kinetics and inhibition. In these mutants, Val82 was substituted separately by Asn, Glu, Ala, Ser, Asp, and Gln; Asp30 was individually substituted by Phe or Trp; Gly48 by His, Asp, and Tyr, respectively; and Lys45 by Glu. By examination of the inhibition of a single inhibitor, the differences in Ki values between the native and mutant enzymes can range from very large to insignificant even for the mutants with substitutions at the same position. By examination of a single mutant enzyme, the same broad range of Ki changes was observed for a group of inhibitors: Thus, how much the inhibition changes from the wild-type enzyme to a mutant is dependent on both the mutation and the inhibitor. The examination of Ki changes of inhibitors with closely related structures binding to Val82 mutants also reveals that the change of inhibition involves subsites in which Val82 is not in direct contact, indicating a considerable flexibility of the conformation of HIV protease. For the catalytic activities of the mutants, the kcat and Km values of many Val82 mutants and a Lys45 mutant are comparable to the native enzyme. Surprisingly, Gly48 mutations produce enzymes with catalytic efficiency superior to that of the wild-type enzyme by as much as 10-fold. Modeling of the structure of the mutants suggests that the high catalytic efficiency of some substrates is related to an increase of rigidity of the flap region of the mutants. The examination of the relative changes of inhibition and catalysis of mutants suggests that some of the Val82 and Gly48 mutants are potential resistance mutants. However, the resistance is specific with respect to individual inhibitors.

Acyclic 6-phenylselenenyl- and 6-phenylthiopyrimidine derivatives are potent and specific inhibitors of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1). The development of in vitro resistance to two derivatives, 5-ethyl-1-(ethoxymethyl)-(6-phenylthio)-uracil (E-EPU), was evaluated by serial passage of HIV-1 in increasing concentrations of inhibitor. HIV-1 variants exhibiting > 500-fold resistance to E-EPSeU and E-EPU were isolated after sequential passage in 1, 5, and 10 microM inhibitor. The resistant variants exhibited coresistance to related acyclic 6-substituted pyrimidines and the HIV-1-specific inhibitors (+)-(5S)-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-5- pyrimidines and the HIV-1-specific inhibitors (+)-(5S)-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-5- methyl-6-(3-methyl-2-butenyl)imidazo[4,5,1-jk]benzodiazepin-2(1H)- thione (TIBO R82150) and nevirapine, but remained susceptible to 3'-azido-3'-deoxythymidine, 2',3'-dideoxycytidine, 2',3'-dideoxyinosine, and phosphonoformic acid. DNA sequence analysis of reverse transcriptase (RT) derived from E-EPSeU-resistant virus identified a Tyr (TAT)-to-Cys (TGT) mutation at either codon 188 (Cys-188; 9 of 15 clones) or codon 181 (Cys-181; 5 of 15 clones). The same amino acid changes were found in RT from E-EPU-resistant virus, but the Cys-181 mutation was more common (9 of 10 clones) than the Cys-188 mutation (1 of 10 clones). Site-specific mutagenesis and production of mutant recombinant viruses demonstrated that both the Cys-181 and Cys-188 mutations cause resistance to E-EPSeU and E-EPU. Of the two mutations, the Cys-188 substitution produced greater E-EPSeU and E-EPU resistance. The predominance of the Cys-188 mutation in E-EPSeU-resistant variants has not been noted for other classes of HIV-1 specific RT inhibitors. HIV-1 resistance is likely to limit the therapeutic efficacy of acyclic 6-substituted pyrimidines if they are used as monotherapy.
