Pan-active imidazolopiperazine antimalarials target the Plasmodium falciparum intracellular secretory pathway

Pan-active imidazolopiperazine antimalarials target the Plasmodium falciparum intracellular secretory pathway

Imidazolopiperazines (IZPs) are a class of compounds under clinical development for malaria, but their mechanism of action is unclear. Here, the authors show that IZPs inhibit the parasite’s secretory pathway, affecting protein trafficking and export.
