catalyzes the addition of a myristate group to the N-terminalglycine residues of proteins, is involved in the myristoylation of more than 100 proteins. Genetic knockdown of the enzyme proved detrimental for the viability of the parasite P. knowlesi. A crystal structure of P. vivax N-myristoyl transferase (pvNMT), containing a 3-methyl benzofuran ligand has made it possible to assess key aminoacid residue-ligand
