Popis: | A series of 2-pyridyl pyrimidines, reported inhibitors of Plasmodium falciparum methionine aminopeptidase 1b were synthesized and evaluated for their antiplasmodial activities. An analysis of physicochemical properties demonstrated a link between lipophilicity and antiparasitic activity. Cross screening of the library against cultured Leishmania donovani parasites revealed this class of compounds as potent inhibitors of parasite development in vitro. |
