Antimalarial 4(1H)-pyridones bind to the Qisite of cytochromebc1 [PDF]
Cytochrome bc1 is a proven drug target in the prevention and treatment of malaria. The rise in drug-resistant strains of Plasmodium falciparum, the organism responsible for malaria, has generated a global effort in designing new classes of drugs. Much of

A validated bioluminescence-based assay for the rapid determination of the initial rate of kill for discovery antimalarials [PDF]
Objectives: A future treatment for uncomplicated malaria will contain at least one component that exerts a rapid rate of kill (RoK). We describe here the validation and application of a simple, robust and rapid bioluminescence-based assay for the ...

Antiparasitic Agent Atovaquone [PDF]
Atovaquone is a unique naphthoquinone with broad-spectrum antiprotozoal activity. It is effective for the treatment and prevention of Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia (PCP), it is effective in combination with proguanil for the treatment and prevention of malaria, and it is effective in combination with azithromycin for the treatment of babesiosis. There
