Abstract:
Most protein phosphatases have little intrinsic substrate specificity,making selective pharmacological inhibition of specific dephosphorylationreactions a challenging problem. In a screen for small moleculesthat protect cells from endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, weidentified salubrinal, a selective inhibitor of cellular complexesthat dephosphorylate eukaryotic translation initiation factor2 subunit (eIF2). Salubrinal also blocks eIF2 dephosphorylationmediated by a herpes simplex virus protein and inhibits viralreplication. These results suggest that selective chemical inhibitorsof eIF2 dephosphorylation may be useful in diseases involvingER stress or viral infection. More broadly, salubrinal demonstratesthe feasibility of selective pharmacological targeting of cellulardephosphorylation events.
