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).

To find antiviral agents, various sulfonamidobenzophenone oximes (II) were synthesized from the appropriate m-sulfonamidobenzophenones by hydroxylamine reaction.The reaction products were generally obtained as syn/anti mixtures which were separable by fractional crystallization.The anti isomer had more potent antipoliovirus activity than the syn isomer.Various sulfonamidobenzamides (III) which were structurally related to II were synthesized by the reaction of amino-substituted benzamides with sulfuryl chloride or amines with (aminosulfonyl)benzoyl chloride.Antiviral activity was examined by the plaque-inhibition test.Compounds 5, 36, and 69 exhibited strong antipicornavirus activity.The structure-activity relationships are discussed.
