Journal ArticleDOI

Artemisinin Action and Resistance in Plasmodium falciparum.

TL;DR: This work describes recent progress made in defining the molecular basis of artemisinin resistance, which has identified a primary role for the P. falciparum K13 protein and suggests potential ways to overcome resistance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Globally prevalent PfMDR1 mutations modulate Plasmodium falciparum susceptibility to artemisinin-based combination therapies

TL;DR: Zinc-finger nucleases are used to genetically modify the multidrug resistance-1 transporter PfMDR1 at amino acids 86 and 184, and it is demonstrated that the widely prevalent N86Y mutation augments resistance to the ACT partner drug amodiaquine and the former first-line agent chloroquine.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mapping the malaria parasite druggable genome by using in vitro evolution and chemogenomics

TL;DR: Genome sequencing elucidates potential drug resistance in the malaria parasite and identifies antimalarial targets and drug-resistance genes, as well as discovering hitherto unrecognized drug target–inhibitor pairs.
