Conformational aspects in the design of inhibitors for serine hydroxymethyltransferase (SHMT): biphenyl, aryl sulfonamide, and aryl sulfone motifs (Publications)
Malaria remains a major threat to mankind due to the perpetual emergence of resistance against marketed drugs. Twenty-one pyrazolopyran-based inhibitors bearing terminal biphenyl, aryl sulfonamide, or

Limited polymorphism in <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em> sexual-stage antigens (Publications)
In areas highly endemic for malaria, individuals are frequently found to be infected simultaneously with multiple Plasmodium falciparum clones. This raises the question of whether all parasite clones produce
Open source drug discovery: highly potent antimalarial compounds derived from the Tres Cantos arylpyrroles (Publications)
The development of new antimalarial compounds remains a pivotal part of the strategy for malaria elimination. Recent large-scale phenotypic screens have provided a wealth of potential starting points for
