Nature Reviews Microbiology 11, 849–862 (2013)

In the above article, reference 69 was cited incorrectly at the end of the sentence “these compounds have been resynthesized and this 'malaria box' of potential chemical starting points can be obtained from the Medicines for Malaria Venture (MMV)” and this superfluous citation has now been deleted online. Also, two of the structures shown in Figure 3 (GNF156 and DSM265) contained errors. The figure has now been corrected online. We apologize to the authors and to readers for any misunderstanding caused.
