Abstract

We described chemical inhibitors of Mos1 transposition. Some were already known to affect a related prokaryotic transposase (Tn5) or HIV-1 integrase, whereas the other were new compounds in this field. The new compounds were all organized around a bis-(heteroaryl)maleimides scaffold. Their mechanism of action depended on the chemical substitutions on the scaffold. The cross-activity, between HIV-1 integrase and Mos1 transposase, of the new group of inhibitors showed that Mos1 transposase could constitute an excellent surrogate HIV-1 inhibitor screen.

Keywords: Heterocyclic chemistry, maleimides, transposon inhibitor, HIV-1 integrase inhibitor, mariner inhibitor
