Post-translational modifications (PTMs) are essential for regulating protein functions, influencing various fundamental processes in eukaryotes. These include, but not limited to, cell signaling, trafficking, the epigenetic control of gene expression, and cycle, as well proliferation, differentiation, interactions between cells. In this review, we discuss PTMs that play a key role malaria parasite biology its pathogenesis. Phosphorylation, acetylation, methylation, lipidation lipoxidation, glycosylation, ubiquitination sumoylation, nitrosylation glutathionylation, all which occur malarial parasites, reviewed. We provide information regarding biological significance these along phases complex life cycle Plasmodium spp. Importantly, only parasite, also host vector often crucial growth development. addition to metabolic regulations, can result epitopes able elicit both innate adaptive immune responses or vector. some existing prospective results from antimalarial drug discovery trials target PTM-related host.

Abstract This study involves the design of novel thiadiazole derivatives as hDHODH inhibitors using various structure‐based approaches such pharmacophore modelling, high‐throughput virtual screening (HTVS), prediction ADMET parameters, docking and molecular dynamics (MD) studies. We used validated co‐crystal structure to create six‐feature model ADHRRR, which was by Güner‐Henry scoring (GH score=0.81) approach, enrichment calculations (enrichment factor=51), area under curve (0.93), receiving operating characteristic (ROC) (0.89), ROC′s Boltzmann‐enhanced discrimination, known BEDROC (α=8) (0.859), (α=20) (0.828), (α=160) (0.912). Pharmacophore a 3D search query for zinc database followed investigations energy calculation (Prime/MMGBSA). For compounds, we selected moiety central scaffold functional groups based on pharmacophoric characters binding interactions. In study, designed compounds showed favourable interactions with Gln47 Arg136 at active site enzyme, optimal drug likeness properties study. Stability enzyme‐ligand complex MD simulation RMSD, RMSF RoG calculations. These findings suggested that thiadiazoles are potential candidates anticancer agents.
