GSK2656157 is a research chemical that acts as an inhibitor of the protein kinase PERK (protein kinase R (PKR)-like endoplasmic reticulum kinase). As an integral part of the unfolded protein response (UPR), PERK plays a critical role in maintaining cellular homeostasis, especially under conditions of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. GSK2656157 is utilized in studies to understand the role of PERK in various cellular processes, including the regulation of protein synthesis and the determination of cell fate decisions during stress conditions. By inhibiting PERK, researchers can investigate its functions and the consequences of its dysregulation, which has implications for understanding diseases associated with ER stress, such as neurodegeneration and cancer. Additionally, GSK2656157 is employed to explore the potential for targeting the UPR pathway in various research models.
