Analyzing interaction of rhodacyanine inhibitor ‘MKT-077’ with <i>Plasmodium falciparum</i> HSP70 nucleotide binding domains
2023-07-29
Abstract excerpt
MKT-077 and its derivatives are rhodacyanine inhibitors that hold potential in treatment of cancer, neurodegenerative diseases and malaria. These allosteric drugs act by inhibiting the ATPase action of heat shock proteins of 70kDa (HSP70). MKT-077 accumulates in the mitochondria and displays differential activity against HSP70 homologs. The four Plasmodium falciparum HSP70s (PfHSP70) are present at various subcel...
