Table 3.

ASP scoring function of PkDHPS inhibitors and their natural substrates.

Variants pABA Sulfadoxine (SDX) Sulfamethoxazole (SMZ)
Wildtype P. knowlesi 24.23 35.35 31.88
Mutant P. knowlesi
N391S 24.10 (0.13) 34.42 (0.93) 31.71 (0.17)
N517S 24.31 (-0.08) 36.03 (-0.68) 31.98 (-0.10)

Note: ASP scores have no unit and refer to the fitness of ligands. A higher score indicated a high affinity of ligands for the protein. The scores in the bracket refer to the relative docking scores.
