An assay procedure to investigate the transformation of toxic heme into inert hemozoin via plasmodial heme detoxification protein
Most antimalarial therapeutics, including chloroquine and artemisinin, induce free heme-mediated toxicity in Plasmodium. This cytotoxic heme is produced as a by-product during the large-scale digestion of host hemoglobin. Conversion of this host-derived heme into inert crystalline hemozoin is the on...
