but not in humans. Herein, the structure-baseddesign, synthesis, and biologicalevaluation of a series of inhibitors featuring a central imidazole or benzimidazole scaffold for the kinase IspE from E. coli, a model for the corresponding malarial enzyme, are described. Optimization of the binding preferences of the hydrophobic sub-pocket at the substrate-bindingsite allowed IC50 values in the lower
