    AnnotationHypoxanthine-guanin-(xanthine) phosphoribosyltransferase (HG(X)PRT) is critical for the survival of malarial parasites Plasmodium falciparum and Plasmodium vivax. These parasites rely on HG(X)PRT to make 6-oxopurine nucleoside monophosphates. Specific acyclic nucleoside phosphonates (ANPs) inhibit HG(X)PRT and thus have an anti-plasmodial activity. Crystal structures of human HGPRT in complex with several ANP-based inhibitors suggested that attachment of the second phosphonate group which could occupy the pyrophosphate binding site may lead to increased affinity of these compounds.
