Notes.

a

Dissociation constants obtained using AutoDock vina have been cited in the text on account of greater consistency to reported experimental values of the ligands for the respective target proteins.

b

As determined for coronin from Plasmodium falciparum

No significant binding detected.

ND
Experimental binding constants unknown/not determined
