RGD ID: 1614799
Species: Mus musculus
RGD Object: Gene
Symbol: Slc47a2
Name: solute carrier family 47, member 2
Acc ID: CHEBI:8455
Term: proguanil
Definition: A biguanide compound which has isopropyl and p-chlorophenyl substituents on the terminal N atoms. A prophylactic antimalarial drug, it works by inhibiting the enzyme dihydrofolate reductase, which is involved in the reproduction of the malaria parasites Plasmodium falciparum and P. vivax within the red blood cells.
