Autophagy is the common name for a number of lysosome-based degradation pathways of cytosolic cargos. The key components of autophagy are members of Atg8 family proteins involved in almost all steps of the process, from autophagosome formation to their selective fusion with lysosomes. In this study, we show that the homologous members of the human Atg8 family proteins, LC3A and LC3B, are druggable by a small molecule inhibitor novobiocin. Structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies of the 4-hydroxy coumarin core scaffold were performed, supported by a crystal structure of the LC3A dihydronovobiocin complex. The study reports the first nonpeptide inhibitors for these protein interaction targets and will lay the foundation for the development of more potent chemical probes for the Atg8 protein family which may also find applications for the development of autophagy-mediated degraders (AUTACs).

Thirty-five novel chromone derivatives containing dithioacetal moiety were designed, synthesized, and their anti-TMV activities were evaluated through half-leaf method. The results showed compound c23 illustrates highly curative, protective and inactivating activities against TMV at 500 mg/L, with the values of 68.8%, 58.8%, 86.0% respectively, which were superior to that of Ribavirin (42.3%, 49.8%, 68.4%, respectively) and similar to that of Ningnanmycin (59.4%, 52.4%, 88.4%, respectively). The EC50 value of inactivating activities of compound c23 is 9.3 mg/L, which was better than that of Ribavirin (135.2 mg/L), and equivalent to that of Ningnanmycin (8.8 mg/L). Furthermore, compound c23 can destroy the integrity of TMV-CP, resulting in reduced infectivity of TMV. Meanwhile, compound c23 can combine with TMV protein coat and hydrolyze TMV protein coat to impact the process of self-assembling of TMV, with the association constant (Kd) 4.5 mg/L. This finding suggests that chromone derivatives containing dithioacetal moiety can be used as new antiviral agent.
