Protein farnesyl and N-myristoyl transferases: piggy-back medicinal chemistry targets for the development of antitrypanosomatid and antimalarial therapeutics.

To accelerate progress in the development of therapeutics for protozoan parasitic diseases, we are studying enzymes active in co- and post-translational protein modification that are already the focus of drug development in other eukaryotic systems. Inhibitors of the protein farnesyltransferases (PF...
