`
`RESEARCH INTERESTS
`
`Research in the Johnson Lab is focused on three different areas. The projects are linked by the
`common thread of using transient kinetic methods to examine enzyme reaction pathways and
`to relate our kinetic and functional analysis to enzyme structure.
`
`
`HIV Reverse Transcriptase mechanism, fidelity, inhibition and drug resistance. In
`previous work we have established the elementary steps leading to correct nucleotide
`incorporation by HIV reverse transcriptase and have quantified the changes in individual kinetic
`constants occurring during misincorporation. In addition, we have determined the mechanism of
`action of a class of nonnucleoside inhibitors and characterized changes leading to resistance
`against these agents. In current work, we are continuing to explore the mechanisms of multiple
`drug resistance and had provided an understanding of the role of enzyme conformational
`changes in enzyme specificity. A better understanding of these phenomena at the structural
`and mechanistic level can lead to the development of better combination therapies in the
`treatment of AIDS.
`
`Mitochondrial DNA Polymerase mechanism, fidelity and inhibition by nucleoside
`
`analogs. Several studies point to the likely role of the mitochondrial DNA polymerase in the
`toxicity of nucleoside analogs used in the treatment of viral infections such as hepatitis and
`AIDS. We have established that the toxicity of nucleoside analogs is correlated with their
`incorporation into mitochondrial DNA by the mitochondrial polymerase, spanning six orders of
`magnitude. We are currently examining the role of mutations in the human mitochondrial DNA
`polymerase that are linked to heritable human diseases. Our studies include detailed kinetic
`analysis of mutants and unique physiological studies in humanized yeast where the yeast
`mitochondrial DNA polymerase is replaced with the human orthologue.
`
`
`Mechanism of RNA-dependent RNA replication by the Hepatitis C viral polymerase.
`Hepatitis C infect 3% of the worlds population and chronic infection leads to liver cirrhosis and
`cancer. We are currently working to understand the mechanisms of initiation and elongation of
`RNA polymerization and the mechanisms of action of drugs currently under development. Here
`we take advantage of our recent success in finding conditions for the formation of a stable,
`highly active elongation complex. We showed how the kinetics of incorporation versus
`nucleotide-dependent excision explain why Sofosbuvir (a UMP analog) is an effective drug,
`while a similar cytosine analog fails.
`
`
`Mechanistic basis for CRISPR-Cas9 specificity. CRISPR-Cas9 offers the promise of
`effective gene therapy, but it is limited by off-target effects. In our current work, we are
`investigating the kinetic and thermodynamic basis of enzyme specificity and evaluating several
`“high fidelity” variants. This work provides a guide for enzymes with improved specificity.
`
`
`SARS-CoV-2 RNA-dependent RNA polymerase. In our current work we have
`reconstituted the viral polymerase and have provide kinetic and structural analysis to explain
`why Remdesevir is an effective inhibitor used to treat COVID-19. This work lays the foundation
`for development of new direct acting antiviral drugs.

`CURRENT RESEARCH GRANT SUPPORT
`
`NIH/NIAID: 1 R01 AI163336-01 (Johnson)
`Kinetic and structural basis for SARS-CoV-2 RNA-dependent
`RNA polymerase specificity and inhibition
`
` Currently Remdesivir is the only FDA-approved direct-acting antiviral drug used to treat COVID-
`19. Even with the tremendous success of vaccines there will be a continued need for drugs to treat
`SARS CoV-2 infections for instances when vaccines fail, for individuals who refuse vaccines, and
`for the likely emergence of new strains of coronavirus. This grant builds upon our success in
`expressing and purifying a highly active SARS CoV-2 RNA-dependent RNA polymerase, capable of
`replicating the 30 kb viral genome in two minutes. We have used this preparation to establish the
`kinetic and structural basis for inhibition of viral RNA replication by Remdesivir. Future studies will
`examine the role of the proofreading exonuclease in efficiency of nucleotide analogs.
`NIH/NIAID: 1R01 AI110577-01A1 (Johnson)
`
`12/01/14 to 11/30/2020
`Dynamics of Hepatis C viral RNA-dependent RNA replication
`
` Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infects approximately 180 million people worldwide, including 4-5 million
`in the USA, and chronic infection leads to liver cirrhosis and cancer. The previous standard of care,
`involving 48 weeks of PEGylated interferon and ribavirin is only partially effective and causes
`significant side effects, but has been enhanced by antiviral nucleoside analogs. New nucleoside and
`nonnucleoside inhibitors have been developed that act directly against the HCV RNA-dependent
`RNA polymerase. In this proposal, we will use newly established methods to form an active
`polymerase-RNA elongation complex to establish the mechanism of action of these new inhibitors
`and quantify the effects of mutations leading to resistance. This research will provide a better
`foundation for the design and evaluation of more effective drugs to treat HCV infections.
`NIH/NIGMS: 1R01 GM114223-01 (Johnson)
`
`04/01/15 to 01/31/2021
`Correlating defects in mitochondrial DNA replication to
`
`physiology
`Mutations in the human mtDNA polymerase (Pol γ) have been correlated with various mitochondrial
`disorders, including mtDNA depletion syndrome, Alpers Syndrome, and progressive external
`opthalmoplegia (PEO), and many of the nucleoside analogs used to treat HIV infections have toxic
`side effects due to inhibition of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) replication. This research will provide a
`better understanding of the role of the mtDNA polymerase in diseases related to mitochondrial
`function, and will provide new information to define the molecular basis for nucleotide discrimination
`by the human mtDNA polymerase, the physiological basis for the toxicity of nucleoside analogs used
`to treat HIV infections, and the role of mtDNA polymerase and helicase mutations in heritable
`disorders.
`The Welch Foundation: F-1604 (Johnson)
`
`06/01/2008 to 05/31/2021
`Kinetics of Hepatitis C Viral RNA-dependent RNA Polymerase
`
`This grant provides seed money to develop new methods to examine the kinetic basis for nucleotide
`selectivity by the Hepatitis C viral RNA polymerase and the effectiveness of nucleoside analogs
`used to treat HCV infections.

`
`Annual Kinetics Workshop:
`For the past 15 years I have taught a 4-day intensive workshop on modern enzyme
`kinetics. With more than 450 graduates, the workshop is attended by 40-50 individuals
`each year with professors, graduate students and industrial research scientists in
`approximately equal proportions, from the US and Europe, and as far away as Russian
`and Malaysia. The workshop is funded by registration fees paid by the participants.
`
`Software development:
`Through KinTek Corporation, I have hired programmers and worked closely with them
`to write a computer program for fitting kinetic data based upon computer simulation.
`Based upon numerical integration of rate equations, the program allows data to be fit
`directly to a model, bypassing the simplifying assumptions required for mathematical
`modeling. Licenses for a professional version of the software are offered for sale to
`support the programming effort. A free student version is also available at
`http://www.kintekexplorer.com. The professional version is available free of charge to
`faculty and students of the University of Texas.
