Ligands: 75T, MYA Gene: nmt1, AFUA_4G08070 (ASPFU) Activity: Glycylpeptide N-tetradecanoyltransferase, with EC number 2.3.1.97 Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Function [NMT_ASPFU] Adds a myristoyl group to the N-terminal glycine residue of certain cellular proteins. Publication Abstract from PubMed N-Myristoyltransferase (NMT) represents a promising drug target within the parasitic protozoa Trpanosoma brucei (T. brucei), the causative agent for human African trypanosomiasis (HAT) or sleeping sickness. We have previously validated T. brucei NMT as a promising druggable target for the treatment of HAT in both stage 1 and 2 of the disease. We report on the use of the previously reported DDD85646 (1) as a start point for the design of a class of potent, brain penetrant inhibitors of T. brucei NMT.
