ABSTRACT
Reverse hydroxamate-based inhibitors of IspC, a key enzyme of the non-mevalonate pathway of isoprenoid biosynthesis and a validated antimalarial target, were synthesized and biologically evaluated. The binding mode of one derivative in complex with EcIspC and a divalent metal ion was clarified by X-ray analysis. Pilot experiments have demonstrated in vivo potential.
