Description: Helicobacter pylori infects approximately half of the world's population and is responsible for inducing chronic gastric inflammation that can progress to gastric cancer (1). At the cellular level, Helicobacter pylori infection of the human stomach is associated with inflammation that elicits DNA damage in both bacterial and host cells (2). This DNA damage must be repaired in order for the bacteria to persist. The H. pylori AddAB helicase-exonuclease is required for DNA repair and efficient stomach colonization (3), and inhibitors of this enzyme may be useful antibacterial drugs for treating these infections. The AddAB class of enzymes is closely related to the RecBCD class of helicase-nucleases; both classes are widely distributed in bacteria but appear to be absent in eukaryotes (4). The protein complex functions in DNA repair by directing free DNA ends into the homologous recombination pathway (5). As a result, the identification of inhibitors of AddAB may be useful tools for elucidating the role of AddAB and RecBCD in bacterial recombination and as potential novel antibiotics with few off-target effects.

Protocol Assay Overview: The purpose of this assay is to determine whether powder samples of compounds identified as probe candidates can inhibit AddAB enzymatic activities, using AddAB purified from E. coli. This assay determines IC50 values for selected compounds. Nuclease activity is assayed as the formation of trichloroacetic acid-soluble radioactive material, detected with a scintillation counter, from uniformly labeled [3H] double-stranded (ds) DNA. As designed, compounds that inhibit AddAB will reduce the nuclease activity (less acid-soluble material after standard incubation). Protocol Summary: Nuclease assays measured the formation of TCA-soluble radioactive material from phage T7 [3H] DNA (2 ug/mL; 6 uM nucleotides) substrate in a 20 min incubation at 37 C. AddAB assays were in 50 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.5), 10 mM MgCl2, polyvinylpyrrolidone (1 mg/mL), 1 mM DTT, and 50 uM ATP. 2 nM AddAB enzyme was used in this assay. Compounds were diluted in DMSO and added to enzyme in assay buffer on ice; final DMSO concentration was 5.0% (v/v) in each assay. DNA substrate was added, and after < 5 min the reactions were started by transferring the samples to 37 C. Reactions were stopped by addition of calf thymus DNA to 0.2 mg/mL and TCA to 5% (w/v). After 10 min on ice, the mixtures were centrifuged for 5 min at 16,100 x g, and the soluble radioactive material was determined in a scintillation counter. The percent inhibition for each compound was calculated as follows: %_Inhibition = 100 * ( 1 - ( ( Test_Compound - Background ) / ( Mean_DMSO_Control - Background ) ) ) Where: Mean_DMSO_Control is defined as TCA-soluble radioactive product formed by AddAB ds exonuclease in 20 min with the presence of 5.0 %(v/v) DMSO. Background is defined as TCA-soluble radioactive product formed without the presence of AddAB enzyme in the assay conditions. Test_Compound is defined as TCA-soluble radioactive product formed in the presence of compound diluted in 5.0% (v/v) DMSO. For each test compound, percent inhibition was plotted against compound concentration. A four parameter equation describing a sigmoidal dose-response curve was then fitted with adjustable baseline using Prism 5 software (GraphPad Software, Inc). The reported IC50 values were generated from fitted curves by solving for the X-intercept value at the 50% inhibition level of the Y-intercept value. In cases where the highest concentration tested (i.e. 100 uM) did not result in greater than 50% inhibition, the IC50 was determined manually as greater than 100 uM. PubChem Activity Outcome and Score: Compounds with an IC50 greater than 100 uM were considered inactive. Compounds with an IC50 equal to or less than 100 uM were considered active. Activity score was then ranked by the potency of the compounds with fitted curves, with the most potent compounds assigned the highest activity scores. The PubChem Activity Score range for active compounds is 100-1, and for inactive compounds 0-0. List of Reagents: Uniformly labeled phage T7 [3H] DNA; purified AddAB enzyme. Comment This assay was run in the assay provider's lab. This assay may have been run as two or more separate campaigns, each campaign testing a unique set of compounds. All test compound concentrations reported above and below are nominal; the specific test concentration(s) for a particular compound may vary based upon the actual sample.
