ABSTRACT

Aim:

To identify virtual bioisosteric replacements of two GPR40 agonists. Materials &

methods:

Bioinformatic docking of candidate molecules featuring a wide range of carboxylic acid bioisosteres into complex with GPR40 was performed using TAK-875 and GW9508 templates.

Results:

This study suggests that 2,6-difluorophenol and squaric acid motifs are the preferred bioisosteric groups for conferring GPR40 affinity.

Conclusion:

This study suggests that compounds 10 and 20 are worthy synthetic targets.
