Amodiaquine inhibits PfPMT. 9 / 9
| 9

reach
"Interestingly, PfPMT activity was not inhibited by the amodiaquine analog, chloroquine, or other aminoquinolines, amino alcohols, or histamine methyltransferase inhibitors."

reach
"Previous studies have also shown that PfPMT activity is inhibited by the 4-aminoquinoline compounds, amodiaquine (AQ) and chloroquine (CQ) with strong inhibition obtained with AQ."

reach
"Here we provide biochemical and biophysical data indicating that PfPMT activity is inhibited by amodiaquine (AQ)."

reach
"In contrast to a previous report 17, amodiaquine was a weak inhibitor of PfPMT (IC 50 = 1.35 mM)."

reach
"The poor inhibition of PfPMT by amodiaquine was comparable to the ~ 3 mM IC 50 values determined for the two PMT from the nematode parasite Haemonchus contortus 12."

reach
"Inhibition of PfPMT activity by amodiaquine in vitro and in yeast."

reach
"Taken together, the effect on enzymatic activity, lack of binding in ITC experiments, and docking studies suggest that amodiaquine and other commonly used aminoquinolines weakly inhibit PfPMT."

reach
"To better characterize inhibition of PfPMT by amodiaquine, we determined the IC 50 values of a series o aminoquinolines using a direct radiochemical assay."

reach
"To better understand amodiaquine inhibition of PfPMT, we determined the x-ray crystal structure of the enzyme in complex with S-adenosylhomocysteine (SAH) and amodiaquine 18."
