Investigation of the mode of binding of a novel series of N-benzyl-4-heteroaryl-1-(phenylsulfonyl)piperazine-2-carboxamides to the hepatitis C virus polymerase.
2011
Structure based rationales for the activities of potent N-benzyl-4-heteroaryl-1-(phenylsulfonyl)
piperazine-2-
carboxamideinhibitors of the
hepatitis Cviral polymerase are described herein. These compounds bind to the
hepatitis C virusnon-structural protein 5B (
NS5B), and co-
crystal structuresof select examples from this series with
NS5Bare reported. Comparison of co-
crystal structuresof a potent analog with both
NS5Bgenotype 1a and genotype 1b provides a possible explanation for the genotype-selectivity observed with this compound class and suggests opportunities for the further optimization of the series.
