Molecular docking studies of salubrinal and its analogs as inhibitors of the GADD34:PP1 enzyme.

The phenomenon of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress as a molecular pathophysiological process underlies diseases as cancer, diabetes mellitus, myocardial infarction, neurodegenerative disorders, diseases of the urinary system, disorders associated with bone integrity, etc. To prevent ER stress, salubrinal, which is a phosphatase inhibitor of the eukaryotic translation initiation factor - GADD34:PP1, is currently being intensively studied. The aim of this work is to search for new analogues of this drug using molecular docking methods.
