Development of Isoform-Selective GRP78 Inhibitors from a Direct-to-Biology Strategy
The development of isoform-selective HSP70 inhibitors remains challenging due to the high conservation of this chaperone family. Continuing our efforts to target the peptide-binding pocket within the substrate-binding domain (SBD) of GRP78 (BiP/HSPA5), we identified compound 12 using a Direct-to-Biology (D2B) strateg...
