Structure-based pharmacophore modeling, virtual screening, and molecular dynamics simulation studies for identification of Plasmodium falciparum 5-aminolevulinate synthase inhibitors
Plasmodium falciparum (Pf) 5-aminolevulinic acid synthase (5-ALAS) is an essential enzyme with high selectivity during liver stage development, signifying its potential as a prophylactic antimalarial drug target. The aim of this study was to identify important potential lead compounds which can serv...
