Insights into cytochrome bc (1) complex binding mode of antimalarial 2-hydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinones through molecular modelling
BACKGROUND: Malaria persists as a major public health problem. Atovaquone is a drug that inhibits the respiratory chain of Plasmodium falciparum, but with serious limitations like known resistance, low bioavailability and high plasma protein binding. OBJECTIVES: The aim of this work was to perform m...
