Journal ArticleDOI
Structural stability of SARS-CoV-2 3CLpro and identification of quercetin as an inhibitor by experimental screening.
Olga Abian,David Ortega-Alarcon,Ana Jiménez-Alesanco,Laura Ceballos-Laita,Sonia Vega,Hugh T. Reyburn,Bruno Rizzuti,Adrián Velázquez-Campoy +7 more
TL;DR: Quercetin, with well-known pharmacokinetic and ADMET properties, can be considered as a good candidate for further optimization and development, or repositioned for COVID-19 therapeutic treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rutin Is a Low Micromolar Inhibitor of SARS-CoV-2 Main Protease 3CLpro: Implications for Drug Design of Quercetin Analogs
Bruno Rizzuti,Fedora Grande,Filomena Conforti,Ana Jiménez-Alesanco,Laura Ceballos-Laita,David Ortega-Alarcon,Sonia Vega,Hugh T. Reyburn,Olga Abian,Adrián Velázquez-Campoy +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used rutin, a natural flavonoid that is the most common glycosylated conjugate of quercetin, as a model combining experimental (spectroscopy and calorimetry) and simulation techniques (docking and molecular dynamics simulations).
Journal ArticleDOI
Seleno-Functionalization of Quercetin Improves the Non-Covalent Inhibition of M pro and Its Antiviral Activity in Cells against SARS-CoV-2.
Francesca Mangiavacchi,Pawel Botwina,Elena Menichetti,Luana Bagnoli,Ornelio Rosati,Francesca Marini,Sergio F. Fonseca,Laura Abenante,Diego Alves,Agnieszka Dabrowska,Anna Kula-Pacurar,David Ortega-Alarcon,Ana Jiménez-Alesanco,Laura Ceballos-Laita,Sonia Vega,Bruno Rizzuti,Olga Abian,Eder J. Lenardão,Adrián Velázquez-Campoy,Krzysztof Pyrc,Luca Sancineto,Claudio Santi +21 more
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of organoselenium functionalities in the C-8 seleno-quercetin derivatives was explored, and it was shown that a hydrogen bond between the selenium atom and Gln189 residue in the catalytic pocket could explain the higher Mpro activity of 2d and, as a result, its better antiviral profile.
Journal ArticleDOI
ZZW-115–dependent inhibition of NUPR1 nuclear translocation sensitizes cancer cells to genotoxic agents
Wenjun Lan,Patricia Santofimia-Castaño,Mirna Swayden,Yi Xia,Zhengwei Zhou,Stéphane Audebert,Luc Camoin,Can Huang,Ling Peng,Ana Jiménez-Alesanco,Adrián Velázquez-Campoy,Olga Abian,Gwen Lomberk,Raul Urrutia,Bruno Rizzuti,Vincent Géli,Philippe Soubeyran,José L. Neira,José L. Neira,Juan L. Iovanna +19 more
TL;DR: It is proposed that ZZW-115 sensitizes cancer cells to genotoxic agents by inhibiting the nuclear translocation of NUPR1 and thereby decreasing the SUMOylation-dependent functions of key proteins involved in the DDR.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enzyme/Nanocopper Hybrid Nanozymes: Modulating Enzyme-like Activity by the Protein Structure for Biosensing and Tumor Catalytic Therapy.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors demonstrated that the oxidase-like catalytic activity of these copper nanozymes was rationally modulated by enzyme used as a scaffold, with a special role in the nanoparticle size and their environment.
