Abstract
ADP-ribozilacija je kovalentna modifikacija koja kontrolira brojne važne stanične procese od bakterija do čovjeka. ADP-ribozilacijski sustav čine ADP-ribozil-transferaze koje prenose ADPribozu na ciljnu (makro)molekulu i ADP-ribozil-hidrolaze koje osiguravaju reverzibilnost procesa. Glavni predstavnici ADP-ribozil-hidrolaza su makrodomenski proteini zastupljeni u sve tri domene života uključujući i viruse. U ovom doktorskom radu istraživana su dva makrodomenska proteina, SCO6735 iz bakterije Streptomyces coelicolor i Mac1 iz virusa SARS-CoV-2. Pokazano je da SCO6735 uklanja ADP-ribozilaciju s jednolančane DNA modificirane na timinu. Na temelju računalnih i eksperimentalnih rezultata predložen je novi katalitički mehanizam hidrolize ADPriboze s DNA karakterističan za skupinu proteina sličnih SCO6735. Makrodomena Mac1 inhibira imunološki odgovor domaćina čime potiče virusnu replikaciju. Stoga ima terapeutski potencijal za liječenje bolesti uzrokovane virusom SARS-CoV-2. U tu svrhu provedena je virtualna pretraga baze malih molekula koja je rezultirala testiranjem 27 spojeva metodom izotermalne titracijske kalorimetrije. Izmjereni afiniteti vezanja potvrdili su dobro vezanje nekoliko spojeva, uključujući FDA-odobrene lijekove Dasatinib i Metotreksat.
Abstract (english)
ADP-ribosylation is a covalent modification that controls essential cellular processes, conserved from bacteria to humans. The ADP-ribosylation system consists of ADP-ribosyl transferases that catalyse the transfer of ADP-ribose to a target (macro)molecule, while ADP-ribosyl hydrolases ensure reversibility. Macrodomain proteins are ADP-ribosyl hydrolases present in all three domains of life and viruses. In this dissertation, two macrodomain proteins were investigated: SCO6735 from Streptomyces coelicolor and Mac1 encoded by the virus SARS-CoV-2. SCO6735 was experimentally shown to act antagonistically to a bacterial toxin known to impair replication by ADP -ribosylation of thymidines in single-stranded DNA. Furthermore, a novel catalytic mechanism of DNA-(ADP-ribose) hydrolysis characteristic of the subgroup of SCO6735-related proteins was proposed. The Mac1 macrodomain is a good therapeutic target, because it inhibits the host immune response, thus allowing virus replication. In search of potential inhibitors, a virtual screening of a compound library was performed. The screening resulted in testing of 27 molecules with the isothermal titration calorimetry. Determined binding affinities suggested good binding of several molecules, including the FDA-approved drugs Dasatinib and Methotrexate.
