purine salvage enzyme, hypoxanthine–guanine–(xanthine) phosphoribosyltransferase [HG(X)PRT], catalyses the synthesis of the purine nucleoside monophosphates, IMP, GMP or XMP essential for DNA/RNA production. In protozoan parasites, such as Plasmodium, this is the only route available for their synthesis as they lack the de novo pathway which is present in human cells. Acyclic nucleoside phosphonates
