The de novo molecular design program SPROUT has been applied to the X-ray crystal structures of Plasmodium and human dihydroorotate dehydrogenase, respectively. The resulting design templates were used to prepare a series of molecules which, in keeping with predictions, showed useful levels of species-selective enzyme inhibition. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd.
