Abstract:
:Acyclovir triphosphate, ganciclovir triphosphate and penciclovir triphosphate inhibited DNA polymerases alpha, delta, and epsilon. Each triphosphate preferentially inhibited pol delta, although ganciclovir triphosphate was the most impressive of the three; the Ki for inhibition of pol delta was 2 microM (competitive with dGTP), while the Kis for inhibition of pol alpha and epsilon were 80 and 140 microM, respectively. Each of the compounds was polymerized by pol alpha, delta, and epsilon. Incorporation of acyclovir triphosphate resulted in immediate chain termination, whereas incorporation of ganciclovir triphosphate often allowed polymerization of additional dNTPs. Interestingly, chain termination most often occurred after polymerization of just one additional dNTP onto the ganciclovir monophosphate. All three compounds were very weak inhibitors of DNA primase. Acyclovir triphosphate, however, was a unique inhibitor of the pol alpha-catalyzed elongation of primase-synthesized primers. Immediately after DNA primase synthesized a primer, pol alpha frequently incorporated acyclovir triphosphate with consequent chain termination. If, however, pol alpha did not immediately polymerize acyclovir triphosphate onto the primase-synthesized primer, further dNTPs were readily added and acyclovir triphosphate was incorporated much less frequently.
