== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/A5K1A2_PLAVS A5K1A2_PLAVS] Adds a myristoyl group to the N-terminal glycine residue of certain cellular proteins (By similarity).[RuleBase:RU000586]

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
N-Myristoyltransferase (NMT) is an attractive anti-protozoan drug target. A lead-hopping approach was utilized in the design and synthesis of novel benzo[b]thiophene-containing inhibitors of Plasmodium falciparum (Pf) and Plasmodium vivax (Pv) NMT. These inhibitors are selective against Homo sapiens NMT1 (HsNMT), have excellent ligand efficiency (LE) and display anti-parasitic activity in vitro. The binding mode of this series was determined by crystallography and shows a novel binding mode for the benzothiophene ring.
