About Beryllium
• Founded in 1998 as Emerald Biostructures
– deCODE biostructures 2000-2008; Emerald Bio 2009-2014
– Name change to Beryllium 2014
• Contract research focused on structural biology
– Bainbridge Island, WA (X-ray crystallography, 500 MHz NMR)
– Bedford, MA (protein expression/purification, 700 MHz NMR)
700 MHz NMR in BedfordX-ray generator in Bainbridge Is.

• “Ligand-observe” screening
• No upper limit on protein target size
• No isotopic labeling required
• Short data acquisition time
• False positive rate high—orthogonal
methods (X-ray) for confirmation

• Viral polymerases are proven
drug targets (HIV-RT, HCV)
• Influenza virus RNA-dependent
RNA polymerase is a
heterotrimeric protein complex
– Polymerase acidic (PA) protein
– 2 Polymerase basic proteins (PB1
and PB2)
• SSGCID structures of isolated
PA-C-terminal domain showed
conformational flexibility at PB1
peptide binding domain—
possible target for SBDD
Influenza Viral Polymerase

Fragment Hits vs. Influenza A PA-CTD
• Expected many of the hits to bind to the PB1 binding site (which is a hot
spot for in silico binding and conformational change)
• Series of chlorophenyl compounds bind to a surface site distal from the
PB1 binding site.
– Site is located in close proximity to the viral RNA (vRNA) loading site and a
species specific differential loop.
