pubmed:abstractText
Non-functional analogs of the cofactors ATP and NAD are putative inhibitors of ATP- or NAD-dependant enzymes. Since pathogenic protozoa rely heavily on the salvage of purine nucleosides from the bloodstream of their host, such compounds are of interest as antiplasmodial and antitrypanosomal agents with a multitude of molecular targets. By replacing the negatively charged phosphate residues with a constrained unsaturated amide spacer and the nicotinamide moiety of NAD with various lipophilic substituents, 15 new ATP/NAD analogs were obtained in screening quantities. In these compounds, a 5'-desoxyadenosine moiety was conserved as key molecular recognition motif. The inhibition of P. falciparum and T. brucei ssp. in a whole parasite in vitro assay is reported.
