Pharmacophore hypotheses were developed for molecules having antimalarial activities targeting the haem detoxification pathway of the malaria parasite. A training set consisting of 23 compounds was selected to generate these hypotheses, and their activities were evaluated for haem polymerization inhibition and against chloroquine-sensitive (3D7) as well as chloroquine-resistant (K1) strains of p. falciparum. The models were cross-validated by Fischer's randomization test at a 95% confidence level. The model developed against chloroquine-resistant malaria parasites was found to yield the best predictions among the three models.
