AT-752 targets multiple sites and activities on the Dengue virus replication enzyme NS5.

AT-752 is a guanosine analogue prodrug active against dengue virus (DENV). In infected cells, it is metabolized into 2'-methyl-2'-fluoro guanosine 5'-triphosphate (AT-9010) which inhibits RNA synthesis in acting as a RNA chain terminator. Here we show that AT-9010 has several modes of action on DENV full-length NS5.

A unique ferrous iron binding mode is associated with large conformational changes for the transport protein FpvC of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa secretes pyoverdine, a major siderophore to get access to iron, an essential nutrient. Pyoverdine scavenges ferric iron in the bacterial environment with the resulting complex internalized by bacteria. Releasing of iron from pyoverdine in the periplasm involves an iron reduction by an inner membrane reductase and two solute-binding proteins (SBPs) FpvC and FpvF in association with their ABC transporter.
