A potent antimalarial benzoxaborole targets a Plasmodium falciparum cleavage and polyadenylation specificity factor homologue

Benzoxaboroles have been shown to be active against different pathogens. Here, the authors show that the benzoxaborole AN3661 inhibitsPlasmodium falciparum in vitroand in mouse models, and identify a homologue of a mammalian cleavage and polyadenylation specificity factor as a drug target.
