Figure 4.
Binding mode and interaction map of TMC353121 and effect of the D486N mutation on the interactions. Binding mode of TMC353121 in the complete 6HB (A). The RSV 6HB is composed of three central HR1 helices (green surface) surrounded by three antiparallel HR2 helices (blue surface). The 6HB axis is tilted approximately 45 degrees from the plane of the page. Superimposition of the TMC353121 cocrystal structure with the 1G2C RSV 6HB crystal structure (B). The HR1 and HR2 helices of the cocrystal structure are dark green and blue, respectively, and the HR1 and HR2 helices from the 1G2C 6HB structure are shown in salmon and lilac, respectively. Displacement of sidechains by TMC353121 is indicated by orange arrows. Interaction map of TMC353121 with its 6HB target site (C). H-bonds are drawn as black dotted lines. Distances (Å) between interacting atoms are in black. TMC353121 makes a π–π stacking interaction with Y198. Residues from two neighboring HR1 or HR1’ and HR2 helices are indicated in green and blue, respectively. Effect of the HR2 resistance mutation D486N on electrostatic interactions in the TMC353121-bound 6HB complex (D). HR1 or HR1’ and HR2 residues are indicated in dark green and blue, respectively, and the calculated protein surface of HR1 and HR2 in transparent green and blue, respectively. HR2 residue 486 that causes resistance against TMC353121 upon mutation is shown in red. Orange arrows indicate hydrogen bonds. TMC353121 is colored by atom type (carbon = gray; oxygen = red; nitrogen = blue).
