Structural and Functional Characterization of the Enantiomers of the Antischistosomal Drug Oxamniquine.
Plos Negl Trop Dis, 9:e0004132-e0004132, 2015

PubMed Abstract: For over two decades, a racemic mixture of oxamniquine (OXA) was administered to patients infected by Schistosoma mansoni, but whether one or both enantiomers exert antischistosomal activity was unknown. Recently, a ~30 kDa S. mansoni sulfotransferase (SmSULT) was identified as the target of OXA action.
