Bioinformatic Identification of Peptidomimetic-Based Inhibitors against Plasmodium falciparum Antigen AMA1

Figure 3

Docked structures of top 5 small drug-like molecules binding to the hydrophobic groove upon blind docking on the whole molecule surface of PfAMA1 central region. PfAMA1 central region is shown in surface representation in orange, with hydrophobic groove shown in magenta and polymorphic residues shown in green. Structures were visualized by molecular visualization software PyMOL (DeLano Scientific).
