“…Further, by using molecular docking approach, 2,4-diaminoquinazoline and 2,4-diaminopteridine analogs were reported as potential inhibitors of PfDHFR . Multiple computational approaches like ab initio molecular orbital and density functional theory calculations, along with the molecular electrostatic potential analysis, and molecular docking were also utilized by our research group for the design of 1H-imidazole-2,4-diamine derivatives as potential inhibitors of PfDHFR enzyme (Adane & Bharatam, 2011). Many scientific groups have also identified many novel classes of PfDHFR inhibitors such as 2,4-diaminopyrimidines (Falco, Goodwin, Hitchings, Rollo, & Russell, 1951), 2-amino-1,4-dihydro-4,4,7,8-tetramethyl-s-triazino(1,2-a)benzimida zole and Trp-P-2 series (Toyoda et al, 1997), 5-Benzyl-2,4-diamonopyrimidines (Sirichaiwat et al, 2004), novel biguanide analogs (RJF001302, RJF00670 and RJF00719) (Dasgupta et al, 2009), 2-methyl-6-ureido-4-quinolinamides (Madapa et al, 2009, 4-anilinoquinoline triazines , 1,2,3-Triazole tethered β-lactam and 7-chloroquinoline bifunctional hybrids , hybrid phenylthiazolyl-1,3,5-triazine derivatives (Gahtori et al, 2012), 4-aminoquinoline and 1,3,5-triazine derivatives Bhat et al, 2013), and 2-Aminopyrimidinebased 4-aminoquinoline antiplasmodial agents (Singh, Kaur et al, 2012).…”
