Diketopiperazine in pocket

Just got this image from Keith Davies of Find-A-Drug of one of the potential anti-malarial diketopiperazines we are trying to make sitting in a pocket of enoyl reductase. With both phenolic groups binding, it is clear why the catechol moiety is a common component in so many members of this library.

The dashed lines indicate the interactions with O_ALA(198)B, N_GLY(96)B, O_MET(98)B and N_ILE(202)B.
