Structural Insights Into the Function of Leishmania major Adenylosuccinate Lyase

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, Volume 94, Issue 10, Page 1686-1701, October 2026.
ABSTRACT One of several intriguing aspects of kinetoplastid biochemistry is the complete dependence on host purines and purine recycling due to the lack of a de novo purine biosynthesis pathway. Adenylosuccinate lyase (ASL, EC 4.3.2.2) is a key enzyme in the purine synthesis pathway responsible for the conversion of adenylosuccinate into adenosine ...

Coumarin‐Benzimidazole Hybrids as Multitarget Scaffolds for Antileishmanial Drug Discovery

ChemistrySelect, Volume 11, Issue 38, 13 October 2026.
Coumarin‐benzimidazole hybrids emerge as promising antileishmanial agents through virtual screening against essential Leishmania enzymes, Cathepsin B (CatB), and N‐myristoyltransferase (NMT). Molecular docking and dynamics simulations reveal highly stable target interactions that surpass the reference drug miltefosine (MTF).
