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.Keywords
