Funded Activity Summary

Structural and functional characterisation of compounds that inhibit the malarial aminopeptidases. Malaria is the world's most prevalent parasitic disease. Due to the rapid spread of drug resistant parasites there is a need to develop new antimalarial drugs. In this proposal we will characterise new targets and novel methods of inhibition that will form the basis of a new mechanism for antimalarial drugs.
