Pyrimidine biosynthesis presents an attractive drug target in malaria parasites due to the absence of a pyrimidine salvage pathway. A set of compounds designed to inhibit the Plasmodium falciparum pyrimidine biosynthetic enzyme dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (PfDHODH) was synthesized. PfDHODH-specific inhibitors with

In the pyrimidine biosynthetic pathway, N-carbamyl-L-aspartate (CA-asp) is converted to L-dihydroorotate (DHO) by dihydroorotase (DHOase). The mechanism of this important reaction was probed using primary and secondary 15N and 13C isotope effects on the ring opening of DHO using isotope

Using N2 cavitation, we established a protocol to prepare the active mitochondria from Plasmodium falciparum showing a higher succinate dehydrogenase activity than previously reported and a dihydroorotate-dependent respiration. The fact that fumarate partially inhibited the dihydroorotate dependent respiration suggests that

Dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHOD) from Trypanosoma cruzi (TcDHOD) is a member of family 1A DHOD that catalyzes the oxidation of dihydroorotate to orotate (first half-reaction) and then the reduction of fumarate to succinate (second half-reaction) in the de novo pyrimidine biosynthesis

Escherichia coli dihydroorotase has been crystallized in the presence of the product, L-dihydroorotate (L-DHO), and the structure refined at 1.9A resolution. The structure confirms that previously reported (PDB entry 1J79), crystallized in the presence of the substrate N-carbamyl-D,L-aspartate (D, L-CA-asp)
