SARS-CoV-2, a member of the coronavirus family, is responsible for the current
COVID-19 worldwide pandemic. We previously demonstrated that five nucleotide
analogues inhibit the SARS-CoV-2 RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp), including
the active triphosphate forms of Sofosbuvir, Alovudine, Zidovudine, Tenofovir
alafenamide and Emtricitabine. We report here the evaluation of a library of
nucleoside triphosphate analogues with a variety of structural and chemical
features as inhibitors of the RdRps of SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2. These features
include modifications on the sugar (2' or 3' modifications, carbocyclic, acyclic,
or dideoxynucleotides) or on the base. The goal is to identify nucleotide
analogues that not only terminate RNA synthesis catalyzed by these coronavirus
RdRps, but also have the potential to resist the viruses' exonuclease activity.
We examined these nucleotide analogues for their ability to be incorporated by
the RdRps in the polymerase reaction and to prevent further incorporation. While
all 11 molecules tested displayed incorporation, 6 exhibited immediate
termination of the polymerase reaction (triphosphates of Carbovir, Ganciclovir,
Stavudine and Entecavir; 3'-OMe-UTP and Biotin-16-dUTP), 2 showed delayed
termination (Cidofovir diphosphate and 2'-OMe-UTP), and 3 did not terminate the
polymerase reaction (2'-F-dUTP, 2'-NH(2)-dUTP and Desthiobiotin-16-UTP). The
coronaviruses possess an exonuclease that apparently requires a 2'-OH at the
3'-terminus of the growing RNA strand for proofreading. In this study, all
nucleoside triphosphate analogues evaluated form Watson-Crick-like base pairs.
The nucleotide analogues demonstrating termination either lack a 2'-OH, have a
blocked 2'-OH, or show delayed termination. Thus, these nucleotide analogues are
of interest for further investigation to evaluate whether they can evade the
viral exonuclease activity. Prodrugs of five of these nucleotide analogues
(Cidofovir, Abacavir, Valganciclovir/Ganciclovir, Stavudine and Entecavir) are
FDA-approved medications for treatment of other viral infections, and their
safety profiles are well established. After demonstrating potency in inhibiting
viral replication in cell culture, candidate molecules can be rapidly evaluated
as potential therapies for COVID-19.
