WR99210(Cat No.:I010084)is a potent dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) inhibitor primarily used in malaria research, especially against Plasmodium species resistant to traditional antifolates. By targeting DHFR, WR99210 disrupts the folate pathway essential for parasite DNA synthesis and cell replication, effectively inhibiting parasite growth. Its efficacy against DHFR mutants makes it invaluable for studying drug-resistant malaria strains and exploring new antimalarial strategies. Beyond malaria, WR99210 is used in genetic engineering as a selectable marker in research involving DHFR gene mutations, contributing to advancements in parasitology and drug development.
