Two novel compounds were identified as Naa50 binders/inhibitors using DNA-encoded technology screening. Biophysical and biochemical data as well as cocrystal structures were obtained for both compounds (3a and 4a) to understand their mechanism of action. These data were also used to rationalize the binding affinity differences observed between the two compounds and a MLGP peptide-containing substrate. Cellular target engagement experiments further confirm the Naa50 binding of 4a and demonstrate its selectivity toward related enzymes (Naa10 and Naa60). Additional analogs of inhibitor 4a were also evaluated to study the binding mode observed in the cocrystal structures.

We report a 100-fold increase in binding affinity of the Tat(48–57) peptide to HIV-1 transcriptional activator-responsive element (TAR) RNA by replacing Arg52, an essential and critical residue for Tat's specific binding, with (2S,4S)-4-guanidinoproline. The resulting αTat1M peptide is a far superior binder than γTat1M, a peptide containing another conformationally constrained arginine mimic, (2S,4S)-4-amino-N-(3-guanidinopropyl)proline, or even the control Tat peptide (CtrlTat) itself. Our observations are supported by circular dichroism (CD), isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC), gel electrophoresis and UV spectroscopy studies. Molecular dynamics simulations suggest increased interactions between the more compact αTat1M and TAR RNA, relative to CtrlTat. The CD signature of the RNA itself remains largely unchanged upon binding of the peptides. The Tat mimetics further have better cell uptake properties than the control Tat peptide, thus increasing their potential application as specific TAR-binding molecules.
