a

A 10 µM concentration of F0002 and a 100 µM concentration of I-BET151 were used for selection.

b

IC50 calculated for use in method 3 (see reference 48 and Materials and Methods) directly comparing IC50 values when available for both mutant and wild-type parasites.

c

Minimum concentration that resulted in >50% growth inhibition compared to the untreated controls.

d

P value comparing entire dose-response curves for each mutant to the wild-type parent using method 4 (see reference 48 and Materials and Methods). For each mutant, a separate wild-type assay was conducted in parallel.

e

IBETR mutants were challenged with F0002, and F0002-resistant mutants were challenged with I-BET151.

f

ND, not determined.
