Abstract

The cloning and deduced amino acid sequence of Plasmodium falciparum adenylosuccinate synthetase (PfADSS) are reported. PfADSS exhibited 67% homology with the human enzyme. On expression in Escherichia coli, enzymatically active ADSS was produced as deduced by functional complementation analysis. The PfADSS activity was inhibited by hadacidin, a known competitive inhibitor of this enzyme. Nucleotide sequence data are available at GenBank under accession number AF095282.
