Contrary to the status for P. falciparum, Sdx-resistant single point mutations in PvDHPS dominate globally. Alarmingly, highly resistant quintuple and sextuple mutations are rising in Africa (PfDHFR-DHPS) and Asia (Pf/PvDHFR-DHPS). Structural analyses of DHFR and DHPS proteins in complexes with substrates/drugs have revealed that resistance mutations map proximal to Sdx and Pyr binding sites. Thus new studies can focus on discovery of novel inhibitors that target the non-substrate binding grooves in these two validated malaria parasite drug targets.Understa
