Abstract excerpt
<h4>SUMMARY</h4> Salinipostin A (Sal A) is a potent antimalarial marine natural product with an undefined mechanism of action. Using a Sal A-derived activity-based probe, we identify its targets in the Plasmodium falciparum parasite. All of the identified proteins contain α/β serine hydrolase domains, and several are essential for parasite growth. One of the essential targets displays high homology to human mono...
