Target+-+6-phosphoglucanate+dehydrogenase

Plasmodium vivax is a protozoal parasite that is the main source of malaria. P. vivax is one of six species of malaria carriers that infect humans. Symptoms include fever, chills, headache, muscular aching and weakness, vomiting, cough, diarrhoea and abdominal pain. According to DNDi (Drugs for Neglected Diseases initiative), malaria kills about one child every 30 seconds. http://tdrtargets.org/targets/view?gene_id=268632
