The Open Source Malaria (OSM) consortium is developing compounds that kill the human malaria parasite, Plasmodium falciparum, by targeting PfATP4, an essential ion pump on parasite surface. structure of PfATP4 has not been determined. Here, we describe a public competition created to develop predictive model for identification inhibitors, thereby reducing project costs associated with synthesis inactive compounds. Competition participants could see all entries as they were submitted. In...
