- A lead optimization library consisting of 800 HIV-1 nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) was screened in parallel against 4 clinically relevant variants of HIV-1 RT (Wt, L100I, Y181C, and K103N) using a surface plasmon resonance-based biosensor. the aim was to identify inhibitors suitable in specific topical microbicides efficient for preventing the transmission of a range of clinically significant strains of HIV-1. the authors hypothesized that such compounds should have high affinity and slow dissociation rates for multiple variants of the target. to efficiently analyze the large amount of real-time data (sensorgrams) that were generated in the screening, they initially used signals from 3 selected time points to identify compounds with high affinity and slow dissociation for the complete panel of enzyme variants. hits were confirmed by visually inspecting the complete sensorgrams. two structurally unrelated compounds fulfilled the hit criteria, but only 1 compound was found to (a) compete with a known NNRTI for binding to the NNRTI site, (b) inhibit HIV-1 RT activity, and (c) inhibit HIV-1 replication in cell culture, for all 4 enzyme variants. this novel screening methodology offers high-resolution real-time kinetic data for multiple targets in parallel. it is expected to have broad applicability for the discovery of compounds with defined kinetic profiles, crucial for optimal therapeutic effects.

- Small inhibitors of matrix metalloproteinase 12 (MMP-12) have been identified with a biosensor-based screening strategy and a specifically designed fragment library. The interaction between fragments and three variants of the target and a reference protein with an active-site zinc ion was measured continuously by surface plasmon resonance. The developed experimental design overcame the inherent instability of MMP-12 and allowed the identification of fragments that interacted specifically with the active-site of MMP-12 but not with the reference protein. The interaction with MMP-12 for selected compounds were analyzed for concentration dependence and saturability. Compounds interacting distinctly with the target were further evaluated by an activity-based assay, verifying MMP-12 inhibition. Two effective inhibitors were identified, and the compound with highest affinity was confirmed to be a competitive inhibitor with an IC50 of 290 nM and a ligand efficiency of 0.7 kcal/mol heavy atom. This procedure integrates selectivity and binding site identification into the screening procedure and does not require structure determination.

- The commonly used HIV-1 protease assays rely on measurements of the effect of inhibitions on the hydrolysis rate of synthetic peptides. Recently an assay based on surface plasmon resonance (SPR) was introduced. We have taken advantage of the fact that the SPR signal is proportional to the mass of the analyte interacting with the immobilised molecule and developed two new improved efficient competition assay methods. Thus, high molecular weight binders were used as amplifiers of the surface plasmon resonance signal. Linkers were attached by a Heck reaction to the para-positions of the P1/P1′ benzyloxy groups of a linear C2-symmetric C-terminal duplicated inhibitor to enable (a) biotin labelling or (b) direct immobilisation of the inhibitor to the biosensor surface matrix. The interaction properties of a series of 17 structurally diverse inhibitors was assessed and compared to previously reported data. The most sensitive assay was obtained by immobilising the enzyme and amplifying the signal with an antibody, giving a detection range between 0.1 nM and 10 μM. Immobilisation of the inhibitor resulted in a stable and durable surface but a narrower detection range (1–100 nM). The two competition assays are anticipated to be very suitable for fast screening of potential HIV inhibitors.

- The interaction between 290 structurally diverse human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) protease inhibitors and the immobilized enzyme was analyzed with an optical biosensor, Although only a single concentration of inhibitor was used, information about the kinetics of the interaction could be obtained by extracting binding signals at discrete time points. The statistical correlation between the biosensor binding data, inhibition of enzyme activity (K-i), and viral replication (EC50) revealed that the association and dissociation rates for the interaction could be resolved and that they were characteristic for the compounds. The most potent inhibitors, with respect to K-i and EC50 values, including the clinically used drugs, all exhibited fast association and slow dissociation rates. Selective or partially selective binders for HIV-1 protease could be distinguished from compounds that showed a general protein-binding tendency by using three reference target proteins. This biosensor-based direct binding assay revealed a capacity to efficiently provide high-resolution information on the interaction kinetics and specificity of the interaction of a set of compounds with several targets simultaneously.

- A high-resolution optical biosensor assay for screening of low-molecular-weight compounds, using an immobilized protein target, has been developed. HIV-1 proteinase was immobilized on the sensor surface by direct amine coupling and a variety of inhibitors and noninteracting reference drugs were applied to the sensor surface in a continuous how of buffer. The procedure did not require intrinsic reporter groups, substrates, inhibitors, or other ligands for detection. By using a reference protein, the signal could be corrected for the relatively large background signal caused by differences in dimethyl sulfoxide concentration between running and sample buffers. Substances binding with high affinity (K-i in nM range) required efficient regeneration of the sensor surface and washing of the injection system between sample cycles to get consistent results. Analysis was simplified by using report points, extracted during both association and dissociation phases, and a simple graphical display of data. The optimized assay could correctly distinguish HIV-1 inhibitors from other compounds in a randomized series, indicate differences in their interaction kinetics, and reveal artifacts due to nonspecific signals, incomplete regeneration, or carryover. The method is expected to be generally applicable to secondary screening of low-molecular-weight compound libraries with proteins as targets.
