Identifying inhibitors of β-haematin formation with activity against chloroquine-resistant Plasmodium falciparum malaria parasites via virtual screening approaches
Abstract The biomineral haemozoin, or its synthetic analogue β-haematin (βH), has been the focus of several target-based screens for activity against Plasmodium falciparum parasites. Together with the known βH crystal structure, the availability of this screening data makes the target amenable to bo...
