摘要
The molecular mechanism of chloroquine resistance by the chloroquine resistance transporter protein of Plasmodium sp. is explored using molecular modeling and computational methods. The key mutation, lysine(K)-76 to threonine(T) (LYS76THR) in the transporter protein pertains to increased recognition of the protonated forms of the antimalarial drug. Such enhanced affinity can promote drug efflux from host digestive vacuole, rendering aminoquinoline-based treatment ineffective.
