A selection of the available pyrones (1, 2, 7, 9, 10) were
evaluated for their ability to inhibit the function of three recombinant
enzymes (PfFabG, PfFabI and PfFabZ) of P. falciparum
fatty acid biosynthesis while the full set of compounds
were evaluated against one enzyme from M. tuberculosis
(InhA¼MtFabI)
