Publication Abstract from PubMed
The malaria parasite <i>Plasmodium falciparum</i> employs two metallo-aminopeptidases, P<i>f</i>A-M1 and P<I>f</i>A-M17, which are essential for parasite survival. Compounds that inhibit the activity of either enzyme represent leads for the development of new anti-malarial drugs. Here we report the synthesis and structure-activity-relationships of a small library of phosphonic acid arginine mimetics that probe the S1 pocket of both enzymes, and map the necessary interactions that would be important for a dual inhibitor.
