The gasdermins are a family of recently identified pore-forming effector proteins that cause membrane permeabilization and pyroptosis, a lytic pro-inflammatory type of cell death. A role in the regulation of cell proliferation and/or differentiation is suggested by the differentiation status-specific expression of gasdermin proteins in epithelial tissues. One of the GSDM protein is Gasdermin A (GSDMA), which decreased in stomach and esophageal cancers, suggesting a tumor suppressor role. GSDMA receptor antagonists have been researched as potential treatments for inflammatory diseases and baldness. GSDMA's significance in a wide range of disorders makes it an important therapeutic target. As a result, homology modelling of the GSDMA receptor was undertaken in the current study using the crystal structures of Mus musculus (GSDMA3), Human gasdermin D (GSDMD), and Murine gasdermin D (murine GSDMD). The best model was chosen based on the validation results after 20 models were developed utilising single template-based approaches. The generated structures can be used for further binding site and docking studies in the future.
