- the “preincubation assay method using a single-stranded nucleic acid oligomer” of the present invention will be described below while comparing with a conventional method.
- the nucleic acid synthase will be described using HCV RNA-dependent RNA synthase, but is not particularly limited to this enzyme.
- the present invention can be carried out irrespective of the type of nucleic acid synthase. Particularly preferred are RNA synthase, furthermore, RNA-dependent RNA synthase, and HCV RNA-dependent RNA synthase.
- oligo RNA means a single-stranded nucleic acid oligomer having a self-complementary nucleic acid sequence at the 3 'end

- the preincubation time was compared with the enzyme activity.
- the specific procedure is described in Test Example 1.
- the enzyme activity was determined by measuring the uptake of peridine monophosphate (UMP) into the reaction product. The results are shown in Figure 1. It can be seen that the enzyme activity gradually increases until the pre-incubation time reaches about 90 minutes, and the difference in enzyme activity from the conventional method gradually increases. In addition, it can be seen that about 90 minutes of preincubation shows about eight times the enzymatic activity as compared to the conventional method. This facilitates detection of the measurement results, reduces errors in the inhibition rate, and is useful in screening inhibitors. In addition, when the preincubation time was further increased, it was found that the enzyme activity was almost the same as when preincubation was performed for about 90 minutes.
- Pre-incubation access method reduces noise in the access results Can be made. This is described below using Tables 1 and 2.
- Tables 1 and 2 use 3'-deoxyperidine triphosphate (3'-dUTP) as a competitive inhibitor.

- Compounds A and B are compounds determined to be positive by the conventional method. That is, these compounds inhibit HCV RNA-dependent RNA synthase by about 60% to 80% at a concentration of 20 ⁇ Zm 1 in the conventional method without precipitation. However, their inhibition rates fall to about 20% to 30% according to the preincubation assay method.

- the RdRp enzyme or HCV RdRp enzyme means HCV RNA-dependent RNA synthase.
- the enzymatic reaction temperature was set at 25 ° C and 37 ° C, and the time course of the enzyme activity of HCV RdRp was measured with and without preincubation (Fig. 2).
- the enzyme reaction rate at 37 ° C is stopped after 120 minutes.
- the preincubation method although the enzyme reaction rate tends to decrease at 37 ° C after 60 minutes of enzyme reaction, the amount of enzyme reaction increases, and the amount of enzyme reaction increases from 25 minutes to 30 minutes to 180 minutes. The value was 2.6 to 3.0 times higher than that of the enzyme reaction in C.
- a major difference between the method of the present invention and the conventional method in screening for an HCV RNA-dependent RNA synthase inhibitor is the difference in inhibitory activity.
- Compound A and Compound B showed a significant decrease in inhibitory activity by pre-incubation treatment, but Compound C and 3'-dUTP did not show a decrease in inhibitory activity even after pre-incubation treatment. (Table 1, Table 2).
- the preincubation atsay method can (1) increase enzyme activity, (2) increase thermal stability, and (3) reduce noise.
