Abstract

A series of flavonol derivatives containing piperidine sulfonamide were designed and synthesized. The EC50 values for the curative of tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) by Z6 and Z22 were 108.2 and 102.7 μg/mL, respectively, outperforming the control agent ningenmycin (NNM) with an EC50 value of 253.8 μg/mL. Additionally, the EC50 values for the protective activity of Z6 and Z21 were 100.9 and 123.2 μg/mL, respectively, also surpassing the control agent NNM with an EC50 value of 203.7 μg/mL. Microscale thermophoresis (MST) and molecular docking test showed that Z6 bound well with tobacco mosaic virus coat protein (TMV-CP). The biological safety test showed that Z6 had almost no effect on seed germination and seedling growth. After treatment with Z6, the chlorophyll content and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity in tobacco leaves increased, while the malondialdehyde (MDA) content decreased. Therefore, Z6 has a high probability as a potential antiviral agent.

1 Introduction

Plants contribute to over 80 % of the Earth's biomass, thus playing a crucial role in the functioning and stability of ecosystems. However, plant viruses significantly diminish the yield and quality of important agricultural crops, leading to substantial damage to key cash crops (Keim and Alavanja, 2001; Zhang et al., 2024). As the earliest discovered non-cellular infectious agent, TMV has paved the way for human to study the field of plant virology (Jones, 2021; Kosamu et al., 2020; Li et al., 2022). But TMV is a single-stranded RNA virus with a unique one-dimensional structure and nanoscale monodispersity, which can infect 9 plant families and hundreds of plant species, including tobacco, orchids and tomatoes. Especially for important sources of cash crops and the provinces of tobacco production, TMV has a huge impact (Ilyas et al., 2022; Liu et al., 2015; Pan et al., 2023), Upon infection, a plant must not rely solely on its endogenous immune system for defense. At present, chemical pesticide preparations are used as the main means to control plant viruses. The common anti-plant virus control agents mainly include NNM and ribavirin, but their long-term excessive use will also cause resistance to plant viruses (Zhou et al., 2024; Cao et al., 2023a; Wang et al., 2024). Therefore, it is very important to develop a green and efficient compound for the prevention and cure of TMV.

Flavonols, widely distributed in nature, they are a class of plant secondary metabolites, that exist in red wine, coffee, tea, raspberry, ginkgo biloba and different medicinal materials (Aherne and O'Brien, 2002; Nimptsch et al., 2016; Kakigi et al., 2012), and play an important ecological role. Existing studies have shown that flavonols have a wide range of biological activities such as antibacterial (Meng et al., 2023; Gong et al., 2024a), insecticidal (Borsari et al., 2016; Shamshad et al., 2020; Landi et al., 2020), antiviral (Chen et al., 2021) and anti-tumor (Shi et al., 2014; Li et al., 2016; Du et al., 2016) effects, which have paved a new bridge for the development of green pesticides and the combination of natural products. In addition, piperidine ring fragments also have good physiological and pharmacological activities (Ding et al., 2020; Wang et al., 2023a; Zhang et al., 2019), so they play an important role in the process of creating medicine and pesticides. Sulfonamide compounds, when used as intermediates, have antibacterial (Chen et al., 2023; Meseli et al., 2021; Wu et al., 2022; Mao et al., 2024), antiviral (Wei et al., 2023; Zhou et al., 2018) and insecticidal (Jing et al., 2024) biological activities.

A series of flavonol derivatives containing piperidine sulfonamide were synthesized by using flavonol as the lead compound and structurally modified by active splicing method (Fig. 1).

3.2

3.2 Microscale thermophoresis (MST) test

According to the MST test method (Wang et al., 2023b; Cao et al., 2023b) in the literature, the correlation between Z6, Z15 and Z21 with TMV-CP was tested respectively. The specific test method has been given in the supporting material.

3.3

3.3 Molecular docking experiment

In order to further study the binding mode of the target compound with TMV-CP (PDB code:1EI7) at the molecular level, Z6, Z15 and Z21 were selected to perform molecular docking with TMV-CP in Discovery Studio software according to the method reported in literature (Xing et al., 2023). In supporting material describes the specific experimental methods.

3.4

3.4 Biological safety of Z6

In order to study the effect of Z6 on tobacco seeds and seedlings, with the same growth cycle, different concentrations of Z6 were selected for spraying (Lu et al., 2024).

3.5

3.5 Chlorophyll content test

The presence of chlorophyll lays the foundation for plant photosynthesis (Wei et al., 2019). Literature reports have indicated that the TMV infection can impact changes in plant chlorophyll content (Liu et al., 2022; Luo et al., 2023). Therefore, the variations in chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, and total chlorophyll content of tobacco leaves after treatment with Z6 were further investigated to elucidate its mechanism of action. Specific experimental methods are detailed in the supporting materials.

3.6

3.6 Malondialdehyde (MDA) content test

MDA is a biomarker produced by lipid peroxidation and intracellular oxidative stress. The content in MDA can indicate the degree of lipid peroxidation in cell membranes and the extent of membrane damage (Heath and Packer, 2022; Gong et al., 2024b). Therefore, the alteration in MDA content in tobacco leaves treated with Z6 was chosen for further investigation into its mechanism of action. Specific experimental methods are detailed in the supporting materials.

3.7

3.7 Defense enzyme activity assay

SOD is an antioxidant enzyme that converts superoxide radicals in plant cells into hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and oxygen molecules (O2), thus protecting cells from damage (Hunter et al., 1997). Accordingly, the change in SOD activity in tobacco leaves treated with Z6 was recorded to further study its mechanism of action. Specific experimental methods are described in the supporting materials.

4.2

4.2 Virus activity analysis

The resistance test of Z1-Z23 to TMV at 500 μg/mL concentration was determined, and the commercial drug NNM was used as a positive control. The preliminary screening data were shown in Table 1. The curative activities of Z5, Z6, Z12, Z14, Z15, Z19, Z21 and Z22 on TMV were 68.1, 77.0, 71.7, 70.2, 68.9, 68.0, 78.5 and 75.0 %, respectively, which were superior to the control drug NNM (62.5 %). The protective activities of Z4, Z5, Z6, Z8, Z13, Z18 and Z21 against TMV were 80.2, 78.5, 79.4, 72.5, 71.9, 72.0 and 73.1 %, which were superior to the control drug NNM (67.1 %).

Based on the analysis of the activity data in Table 1, it was found that the different structure of substituents structures also had a certain influence on the anti-TMV activity of the compound. Specifically, when substituents R1 = –OCH3, R2 = 4-OCH3, the curative and protective activity of the target compound is higher than that of the electron-donating group when R3 is a strong electron-withdrawing group. For example, Curative and protective activity of Z6 (R3 = 4-NO2-Ph) > Z5 (R3 = 4-Cl-Ph) > Z9 (R3 = ethyl). In summary, Z6 (R1 = –OCH3, R2 = 4-OCH3, R3 = 4-NO2-Ph) exhibits good inhibitory activity in both curative and protection. The leaf characterization of Z6 and NNM against TMV is shown in Fig. 2.

4.3 Binding ability of Z6 and NNM to TMV‑CP

The Fig. 3 shows the MST results of Z6, Z15, Z21 and tobacco Mosaic virus coat protein (TMV-CP). The Kd value can be used to evaluate the binding affinity with TMV-CP. The Kd values of the three compounds binding to TMV-CP were 0.4651 ± 0.1227, 27.3606 ± 7.4426 and 0.9720 ± 0.4015 μmol/L, respectively. The results showed that the binding ability of Z6 to TMV-CP was better than that of Z15 and Z21, further suggesting its good antiviral activity.

4.4

4.4 Molecular docking of Z6 with TMV‑CP

As shown in the Fig. 4, The results of molecular docking demonstrated the ability of Z6, Z15, and Z21 to establish hydrogen bonds with TMV-CP. However, there is variation in the amino acid residues involved in these interactions, with 6, 2, and 3 amino acids respectively. The hydrogen bond lengths for the conserved amino acid residue ARG-134 are measured at 1.85 Å, 2.07 Å, and 3.79 Å for Z6, Z15, and Z21 respectively. Henceforth, the differences in anti-TMV activity among Z6, Z15 and Z21 may be attributed to their distinct binding affinities with TMV-CP. Z6 binds to TMV-CP amino acid residues through six conventional hydrogen bonds, The oxygen atoms on the phenyl nitro group of substituent R3 form hydrogen bonds with the TMV-CP amino acid residues ARG-261 (2.53 Å) and SER-146 (2.91 Å). The oxygen atom on the sulfonyl group forms hydrogen bonds with the TMV-CP amino acid residues ARG-341 (1.84 Å) and ASP-146 (2.32 Å). The oxygen atom on the methoxy group of the substituent R2 forms a hydrogen bond with the TMV-CP amino acid residue GLN-257 (2.79 Å). The oxygen atom on the flavonol carbon–oxygen double bond forms a hydrogen bond with the TMV-CP amino acid residue ARG-134(1.86 Å). In addition, Z6 interacts with nine other TMV-CP amino acid residues: (VAL-260, PRO-263, THR-136, LYS-253, VAL-75, LYS-26, GLU-131, GLU-222, and VAL-251). The experimental results further prove that Z6 has a good binding affinity with TMV-CP.

4.5 Biological safety of Z6

As shown in the Fig. 5, Z6 and DMSO at concentrations of 250, 500 and 1000 μg/mL were sprayed on the seeds of N. glutinosa. It was found that the seed germination was almost unaffected. Similarly, sprays of Z6 and DMSO at concentrations of 250, 500, and 1000 μg/mL had almost no effect on the growth of N. glutinosa with the same growth cycle. The results indicated that Z6 had no significant effect on the germination or growth of the seeds, which proved that Z6 had a non-significant effect on plant growth and good biosafety.

4.6

4.6 Chlorophyll content of Z6

The change of chlorophyll content directly affects the progress of plant photosynthesis and is closely related to plant growth. It can be seen from the Fig. 6 that Z6 can change the content of chlorophyll in tobacco leaves to a certain extent. The chlorophyll content of tobacco leaves treated with Z6 was significantly higher than that of the blank control group, which proved that Z6 could promote the photosynthesis of plants to a certain extent and improve the ability of plants to anti-TMV.

4.7

4.7 MDA content analysis of Z6

As shown in the Fig. 7, MDA content in treated tobacco leaves was measured after 1, 3, 5, and 7 d. MDA content was higher than that in healthy tobacco leaves after 3–7 d of TMV infection, indicating that TMV seriously damaged the integrity of cell membrane. However, the MDA content of tobacco leaves treated with Z6 was significantly lower than that of CK group, especially on the 7th day. With the aging of leaves, the phenomenon was more obvious, indicating that Z6 could inhibit membrane lipid peroxidation and membrane damage to a certain extent, thus resisting the infection of TMV.

4.8 Defense enzyme activity of Z6

As shown in the Fig. 8, SOD enzyme activity in the blank group and drug group infected by TMV was higher than that in the blank group and drug group not infected by TMV, because the cell defense mechanism would be activated after TMV infection, thus increasing SOD activity. In general, SOD activity in drug group was higher than that in blank control group. It can be concluded that Z6 can improve SOD activity, promote SOD generation and eliminate O2– in cells to a certain extent. Thereby improving the disease resistance of the plant.

5 Conclusions

In summary, 23 flavonol derivatives containing piperidine sulfonamide were designed and synthesized in this paper, and their antiviral activities were evaluated, and Z6 was found to have good therapeutic and protective activities. EC50 values of 102.7 and 100.9 μg/mL were better than those of commercial agents NNM (253.8 and 203.7 μg/mL). The results of MST and molecular docking showed that Z6 had a good binding force with TMV-CP, with a Kd value of 0.4651 μmol/L, and it was bound to TMV-CP amino acid residues by six conventional hydrogen bonds. At the same time, Z6 has little effect on the germination and growth of tobacco seeds, and has good biosafety. To a certain extent, it can also increase chlorophyll content and promote plant photosynthesis. Leaves treated with Z6 can slow the increase of MDA content in plants, improve SOD enzyme activity to a certain extent, inhibit the damage to tobacco leaves, promote the generation of SOD and the clearance of O2– in cells. This improves the disease resistance of the plant. Therefore, Z6 is expected to be a potential antiviral agent in the future.
