Full textThe Zika virus (ZIKV), historically confined to Africa and Asia, has become a significant global health concern, especially after recent outbreaks in the Americas linked to severe congenital malformations and neurological disorders. While much research has focused on the Asian/American ZIKV genotype, evidence suggests that African ZIKV strains might also pose a serious threat to public health, particularly regarding fetal pathogenicity. This thesis aims to enhance our understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying the pathogenicity of contemporary ZIKV strains from West Africa, focusing on nonstructural proteins involved in viral replication, immune evasion, and the host cell stress response.To achieve this, we generated an infectious molecular clone, GUINEA-18, from a ZIKV strain (ZIKV-15555) isolated in Guinea in 2018. This clone represents a contemporary African ZIKV strain. We compared it with the infectious molecular clone of the historical African ZIKV strain MR766, designated MR766MC. The replication properties of both viral clones were examined in VeroE6, A549, and HCM3 cells. GUINEA-18 exhibited a slower replication rate, reduced cytotoxicity, and a lower ability to activate the host’s innate immune system compared to MR766MC, suggesting different interactions with host cells.To dissect these differences, we created chimeric viruses by swapping nonstructural protein-coding regions between GUINEA-18 and MR766MC. Results highlighted the critical roles of NS1 to NS4B proteins in replication efficiency and pathogenicity, with NS4B being crucial for GUINEA-18’s replication properties. GUINEA-18 also developed an efficient mechanism to inhibit the assembly of cytoplasmic stress granules (SGs) in A549 cells, a defense mechanism typically triggered by viral infection. The ability of GUINEA-18 to block SG formation depended on the NS1 to NS4B proteins, underscoring their role in evading host defenses.Further investigation into the NS1 protein revealed seven amino acid substitutions in GUINEA-18 compared to MR766. Functional analyses showed that the contemporary NS1 protein (NS1CWA) is secreted more efficiently and has a different subcellular localization than NS1 from MR766 (NS1MR766). This altered behavior of NS1CWA significantly enhances viral replication and cytotoxicity while reducing the activation of innate immune responses in infected cells. A chimeric MR766 virus containing NS1CWA demonstrated these enhanced traits, emphasizing NS1’s role in the virulence of contemporary West African ZIKV strains.In conclusion, this thesis provides a comprehensive analysis of the molecular determinants of replication and pathogenicity in contemporary West African ZIKV strains. The research underscores the crucial roles of NS1 to NS4B proteins, particularly NS1 and NS4B, in these processes. The findings raise questions about risks associated with circulating ZIKV strains in sub-Saharan Africa and highlight the need for ongoing surveillance and research to understand the public health implications. This work contributes valuable insights that could inform future strategies for managing and preventing ZIKV-associated diseases, especially in regions where the African lineage of the virus is prevalent

Full textNS5B is the hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA-dependent RNA polymerase. This protein has been extensively studied by X-ray crystallography and shows an organization in three subdomains called fingers, palm and thumb. Whereas static crystallographic data are abundant, structural studies of this protein in solution are limited. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy was used to study the 65 kDa NS5B in solution as well as its interaction with binding partners. It was characterized using selective isotopic labeling of isoleucine side-chain methyl groups, which gives rise to a simplified NMR spectrum with an improved signal-to-noise ratio. This characterization confirmed the presence of particular dynamics in the subdomains, especially in the thumb, as well as long-range effects that are transmitted through to other subdomains. Furthermore, this system was used to investigate the binding of the domain 2 of NS5A (NS5A-D2), a disordered domain of another HCV protein that has been shown to directly interact with NS5B in vitro. With paramagnetic relaxation enhancement experiments we showed that NS5A-D2 binds to NS5B via, at least, two binding sites on the thumb subdomain. As one of these sites was the binding site of allosteric inhibitor filibuvir, we characterized the binding of this small molecule to NS5B by NMR and found long-range effects of its binding throughout the polymerase. Finally, we studied the binding of a small RNA template strand to NS5B and found that both NS5A-D2 and filibuvir reduce but do not abolish the interaction between the polymerase and RNA. In sum, NMR spectroscopy was used to study dynamic properties of NS5B and its interactions with binding partners

Full textThe PhD project focuses on biomolecules and is divided into two parts. The first part concerns the design and synthesis of natural product derivatives with therapeutic interest in order to develop new molecules with antiviral activity. Recently, aurones were identified as new inhibitors of hepatitis C virus (HCV) NS5B polymerase. Following these results, efforts were continuedand we undertook, on the one hand,the synthesis of original analogues in which the aurone B-ring was replaced by a heterocyclic rings and, on the other hand, the synthesis of aurone pseudodimers in order to refine the structural requirements to improve the inhibitory effect. The potent NS5B inhibitory activity combined with their low toxicity make aurones attractive drug candidates against HCV infection. The second part of the PhD thesis is unrelated to the first part and concerns more fundamental aspects. It focused on the synthesis of new surfactants acting as stabilizing agents during extraction of membrane proteins (PM). Surfactants are required for maintaining PM in their functional state after extraction from membrane lipid matrix. The vast majority of PM shares a net enrichment in basic residues at the interface between membrane and cytoplasm, a property known as the positive inside rule. Based on this feature, a new family of surfactants is developed and tested on membrane proteins belonging to the multidrug ABC efflux pumps family

Full textSingle particle analysis (SPA) from cryogenic transmission electron microscopy (Cryo-EM) nowadays allows structural analysis in the native state of a broad range of proteins and macromolecular complexes. It is particularly attractive for complexes for which structure prediction remains intractable, such as antibody-antigen complexes. In the second chapter of this manuscript, we cover several validation points at the pre-microscope, in-microscope and post-microscope stages for the studies of such complexes by cryo-EM. We detail a wide range of biophysical analyses allowing a detailed description of the biochemical properties of samples in solution. Following these analyses, we discuss the optimal approach for preparing and screening Cryo-EM grids. The last part is devoted to data processing, with exhaustive analyses of the effect of the grid material on the sample. We also present a practical application of current software to deal with continuous conformational heterogeneity. This part shows how we manage to obtain the first experimental map bellow 3 Angstroms resolution of the flexible ternary complex "HTP" between the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) and the antigen-binding fragments (Fab) of two distinct therapeutic antibodies, pertuzumab and trastuzumab. Our map, which is better defined than previous ones, has brought to light a previously neglected interaction that could explain the synergistic effect of the antibodies.The third chapter takes up the approach developed with the HTP complex by applying it to the non-structural norovirus protein NS4. This section provides the first comprehensive results on the biochemical properties of the NS4 protein. It also outlines the limitations of using monoclonal antibodies as structural analysis tools. Finally, it shows how we have succeeded in obtaining a diversified catalogue of artificial proteins "alpharep" targeting NS4, as well as the first possible applications

Full textThe different works presented in this manuscript relate the most relevant investigations representing my career evolution along this last eleven years. First, we show how it is possible to explore new active molecules by developing innovating non-natural amino-acids. This investigation was supported by the docking software GenMol. We show here the structures evolution of the produced molecules according to desired properties and to last advances in the field. The enantio convergent synthesis supported by peptide chemistry allowed us to reach five final molecules with diverse antiviral potentials. Then, synthesis and structural investigation of the compound BHH-BTBT was broached. We describe here physicochemical properties of the packing and how they affect charge transport properties. So then, we achieved OFET with good performance that show interesting perspective for future sensors. Finally we reported the first integration of a semi-conducting material (BTBT) in a hybrid organo-silica material. This approach involved the conception of an informed sol-gel bis(triethoxysilane) precursor that allowed us to control the π-conjugated cores organisation during the creation of the material. With detailed spectroscopic monitoring we demonstrated a J-aggregation during the thin film formation and a reorganisation to a H-aggregation during the sol-gel process. After optimisation of the semiconductor/electrode interface, we obtained hybrid organo-silica field effect transistors entirely reticulated showing a high resilience to a large diversity of organic solvent

Full textIntroduction: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a major cause of liver disease worldwide. This RNA virus is responsible for hepatitis C, which leads to the development of cirrhosis and liver cancer. According to the World Health Organization, HCV infects more than 170 million people worldwide, about 3% of the population. Chronic hepatitis C still know in Tunisia low cure rates for genotype 1, because the currently standard treatment available is combination therapy of pegylated interferon plus ribavirin. At present, the development of different molecules that specifically target HCV, called direct-acting antivirals (DAA) appears as a potential revolution in the treatment of HCV infection. These DAA include protease inhibitors (PI), nucleos(t)ide (NI) and non-nucleoside inhibitors (NNI) for NS5B polymerase and NS5A inhibitors. The viral quasispecies is formed by a complex mixture of viral variants including variants associated with variable degrees of resistance to DAA. These variants may therefore exist naturally in absence of drug pressure and may affect response to different treatments by DAA. Our objective was to determine the prevalence of variants associated with resistance in circulating Tunisian strains preamble to the introduction of these molecules in Tunisia. Methods: Amplification and direct sequencing of NS3 protease, NS5B polymerase and NS5A region were performed in 149 Tunisian naïve patients infected with HCV genotype 1 (genotype 1b = 142; genotype 1a = 7) . Results: Twelve sequences NS3 (12/131; 9.2%) showed mutations known to confer resistance to PI. One sequence (1/95; 1.1%) showed the V321I mutation known to confer resistance to NS5B-IN. Thirty four sequences (34/95; 35.8%) showed mutations known to reduce the sensitivity of NS5B-INN. One genotype 1a sequence (1/7; 14.3%) and 17 genotype 1b sequences (17/112; 16.2%) showed mutations known to confer resistance to NS5A inhibitors.Conclusions: Our study highlighted the presence of substitutions conferring decreased susceptibility to DAA in naïve patients infected with HCV genotype 1. Field studies will be needed to evaluate the impact of these mutations on the treatment response

Full textThere are neither curative nor preventive therapies of dengue fever (DF). Only supplemental medical care and fluid therapy are available to fight DF. Some patients opt for prevention and treatment measure used by the ancient people or folk remedy to treat sickness. One of folk remedy used among patients with dengue fever in the Malaysia hospital is consumption of frog meat soup with bitter melon (Momordica charantia). The fruits flesh and seeds of Momordica charantia (M. charantia) were utilized in this study. The oil of M. charantia seeds were extracted via aqueous enzymatic extraction (AEE) and the oil yield increased with optimum condition to extract the seed oil was to use HEL1:X7 (5:1.25). The seeds oil as well as the lignin, hemicelullose, soluble sugars, and uronic acids content were different accordance to the type of enzyme cocktail ratio. On the other hand, the M. charantia fruits flesh ethyl acetate extract was found to inhibit 38.11 ± 1.06 % of the DENV-2 NS2B/NS3 protease. Based on the GC-MS analysis the trace of gallic acid was found and was selected the basic structural frameworks for synthesis of the DENV-2 NS2B/NS3 protease inhibitor. The pyrazolyl substituted indanone derivatives, 90a-t were synthesized and characterized using FTIR, NMR, and LC-MS analysis. An appropriate percentage of yield of the compounds were obtained. The compounds 90a-t underwent in silico study using AutoDock4.2 to identify the binding mode and conformation with the Wichapong homology protein crystal structure. Five compounds were found to obtained free energy of binding (FEB) less than -7.55 kcal/mol. Compound 90p showed eight hydrogen bond interactions, one π-π stacking interaction, and one π-alkyl interaction with the amino acid residue in the DENV-2 NS2B/NS3 protease. Lastly, the in vitro studies of top five docked synthesized compound towards DENV-2 NS2B/NS3 protease by using fluorogenic peptide substrate Boc-Gly-Arg-7-amino-4-methylcoumarin were conducted. The panduratin A was used as the positive control. Compound 90p showed a high DENV-2 NS2B/NS3 protease inhibitor activity (65.61 ± 0.98 %), while panduratin A (47.59 ± 1.03 %), and gallic acid (25.11 ± 1.11 %). The IC50 value for compound 90p was observed to be 78.87 µM which is lower compared to the panduratin A, 290.27 µM. The compound 90p is concluded to be a potent hit-to-led compound in the development of DENV-2 NS2B/NS3 protease inhibitor
