Halovir[1][2][3] refers to a multi-analogue compound belonging to a group of oligopeptides designated as lipopeptaibols (chemical features including lipophilic acyl chain at the N-terminus, abundant α-aminoisobutyric acid content, and a 1,2-amino alcohol located at the C-terminus)[4] which have membrane modifying capacity[5]and are fungal in origin[1][6]. These peptides display interesting microheterogeneity[5]; slight variation in encoding amino acids gives rise to a mixture of closely related analogues and have been shown to have antibacterial/antiviral properties[2][6].
Background
[edit]Nonribosomal peptides compose a significant group of secondary metabolites in bacterial/fungal organisms (though Drosophila melanogaster and Caenorhabditis elegans both exhibit products of nonribosomal peptide synthetases)[6][7][8]; having been observed functioning as self-defense substances/iron-chelating siderophores, they serve as coping mechanisms for environmental stress, perform as virulence factors/toxins promoting pathogenesis, and act in signalling (enabling communications within and between species)[6][7][8]. In lieu of these functionalities, many nonribosomal peptides have been utilized in development of medical drugs and biocontrol agents (examples of such include β-lactams, daptomycin, echinocandins, emodepside, bleomycin, cyclosporine, and bialaphos)[6][9][10].
Peptaibols are a family of linear, amphipathic polypeptides (typically consisting of 4-21 amino acids residues)[6] that are generated as a result of the assembly of a variety of aminoacyl, ketoacyl or hydroxyacyl monomers by fungal mulitmodular megaenzymes denoted as nonribosomal-peptide synthetases (NRPSs)[11]. Typically, NRPSs are comprised of three highly conserved core domains: an adenylation (A) domain which recognizes, activates and loads monomers onto NRPS, a thiolation (T) domain (also denoted as the peptidyl carrier protein domain) that transports covalently linked monomers/peptidyl intermediates between nearby NRPS domains, and a condensation (C) domain (catalyzes sequential condensation of monomers within the nascent peptide chain)[6][9][12]. In addition, a chain-terminating domain [thioesterase (TE) domain, a terminal C (CT) or a reductase (R) domain] is commonly observed at the end of an NRPS in order to relinquish full-length peptide chains in linear or cyclic forms. Furthermore, often seen are feature tailoring domains [epimerase, N-methyltransferase (M), oxidase (Ox), ketoacyl reductase (KR) and cyclase (Cy)], allowing for further modification of monomers/polypeptide intermediates[6][9][12].
Notable characteristics of peptaibols include: C-terminal alcohol residues (phenylalaninol, leucinol, isoleucinol, valinol)[6][13], an N-acyl terminus (usually acetyl)[13], and high levels of α,α-dialkylated non-proteinogenic amino acids [α-aminoisobutyric acid (Aib), isovaleric acid (Iva), hydroxyproline (Hyp)][13][14]. In most cases, peptaibols form α-helix and β-bend patterns in their 3D structures (α-aminoisobutyric acid is a turn/helix forming agent)[4]. α,α-dialkylated amino acid residues in peptaibols create substantial conformation constrictions in the peptide backbone, resulting in the formation of right-handed α-helical structures[15][16]. Membrane modification abilities can be attributed to the formation of transmembrane voltage-dependent channels[13][17][18]; this occurs as the peptide takes on an α-helical conformation upon contact of lipid bilayers, drilling through and forming ion channels with similar electrophysiological configurations of ion channel proteins[18][19]. The principle functionality of the peptides is to rupture membranes, in turn triggering cytolysis via loss of osmotic balance[19].
Structurally speaking, lipopeptaibols are peptaibols with a fatty acyl moiety linked to the N-terminal amino acid[4] (thusly named), and have been isolated from a number of soil fungi. Their primary structures all have the L-(S-) configuration at the 2-(α-)carbon[4]. They overwhelmingly display microheterogeneity (being very structurally similar; with a limited pool of conserved variation in natural sample).

Medical Applications
[edit]The antibiotic capabilities of these compounds can be attributed to membrane insertion and pore-forming functionalities[11], and typically exhibit antimicrobial activity in Gram-positive bacteria and fungi [13][21].
Halovirs A-E (isolated from Scytidium sp.) has displayed potent antiviral activity against HSV-1, and has been observed performing replication inhibition of HSV-1 and HSV-2[2] in standard plaque reduction assay without cytotoxicity (at concentrations upwards of 0.85μM)[2] Mechanistic studies suggest that halovirs kills virus in direct contact and in a time-dependent manner before it can affect host cells.
Halovirs I and J were analyzed for antibacterial and cytotoxic activities, and displayed significant growth inhibition against two Gram-positive bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus and Enterococcus faecium), but not Gram-negative Escherichia coli[6]. Notably, these two halovirs were found to be effective against methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) and vancomycin-resistant E. faeccium, indicating that the activity against them to be persistent[6]. Additionally, strong cytotoxic activity was observed against a panel of cancer cell lines, including: human lung carinoma A549, human breast carcinoma MCF-7, and human cervical carcinoma HeLa cells (however it should be noted that cytotoxicity was not specific to cancer cells in referenced study)[6].
