The replication complex is composed of six viral proteins: the DNA polymerase, processivity factor, primase, primase-associated factor, helicase, and ssDNA-binding protein. Additionally, the polymerase contains an intrinsic ribonuclease H (RNase H) activity that specifically degrades RNA/DNA heteroduplexes or duplex DNA substrates in the 5' to 3' direction. Therefore, it can catalyze the excision of the RNA primers that initiate the synthesis of Okazaki fragments at a replication fork during viral DNA replication. Publication Abstract from PubMed All herpesviruses encode a conserved DNA polymerase that is required for viral genome replication and serves as an important therapeutic target. Currently available herpesvirus therapies include nucleoside and non-nucleoside inhibitors (NNI) that target the DNA-bound state of herpesvirus polymerase and block replication. Here we report the ternary complex crystal structure of Herpes Simplex Virus 1 DNA polymerase bound to DNA and a 4-oxo-dihydroquinoline NNI, PNU-183792 (PNU), at 3.5 A resolution. PNU bound at the polymerase active site, displacing the template strand and inducing a conformational shift of the fingers domain into an open state. These results demonstrate that PNU inhibits replication by blocking association of dNTP and stalling the enzyme in a catalytically incompetent conformation, ultimately acting as a nucleotide competing inhibitor (NCI). Sequence conservation of the NCI binding pocket further explains broad-spectrum activity while a direct interaction between PNU and residue V823 rationalizes why mutations at this position result in loss of inhibition.
