A Pantetheinase-Resistant Pantothenamide with Potent, On-Target, and Selective Antiplasmodial Activity

Pantothenamides inhibit blood-stage Plasmodium falciparum with potencies (50% inhibitory concentration [IC(50)], ∼20 nM) similar to that of chloroquine. They target processes dependent on pantothenate, a precursor of the essential metabolic cofactor coenzyme A. However, their antiplasmodial activity...
