Ergosterol exert the important function in maintaining the fluidity and osmotic pressure of fungal cells, and its key biosynthesis enzymes (Squalene epoxidase, SE; 14 α-demethylase, CYP51) displayed the obvious synergistic effects. Therefore, we expected to discover the novel antifungal compounds with dual-target (SE/CYP51) inhibitory activity. In the progress, we screened the different kinds of potent fragments based on the dual-target (CYP51, SE) features, and the method of fragment-based drug discovery (FBDD) was used to guide the construction of three different series of benzodioxane compounds. Subsequently, their chemical structures were synthesized and evaluated. These compounds displayed the obvious biological activity against the pathogenic fungal strains. Notably, target compounds 10a-2 and 22a-2 possessed the excellent broad-spectrum anti-fungal activity (MIC50, 0.125–2.0 μg/mL) and the activity against drug-resistant strains (MIC50, 0.5–2.0 μg/mL). Preliminary mechanism studies have confirmed that these compounds effectively inhibited the dual-target (SE/CYP51) activity, they could cause fungal rupture and death by blocking the bio-synthetic pathway of ergosterol. Further experiments discovered that compounds 10a-2 and 22a-2 also maintained a certain of anti-fungal effect in vivo. In summary, this study not only provided the new dual-target drug design strategy and method, but also discover the potential antifungal compounds.

In response to the current pandemic caused by the novel SARS-CoV-2, we design new compounds based on Lopinavir structure as an FDA-approved antiviral agent which is currently under more evaluation in clinical trials for COVID-19 patients. This is the first example of the preparation of Lopinavir isosteres from the main core of Lopinavir conducted to various heterocyclic fragments. It is proposed that main protease inhibitors play an important role in the cycle life of coronavirus. Thus, the protease inhibition effect of synthesized compounds was studied by molecular docking method. All of these 10 molecules, showing a good docking score compared. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations also confirmed the stability of the best-designed compound in Mpro active site. Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.
