A bacterium makes a molecule that kills drug-resistant fungi in an unusual way — by targeting various phospholipid molecules ...

The discovery of a new preclinical compound with strong antifungal activity against multidrug-resistant pathogens is ...

a lipid (fat), found in fungi. Ergosterol is similar to but less studied than cholesterol found in animal cells. Lipids form much of the basic structure of cell membranes, which are primarily made ...

Animal Cells are limited by their plasma membrane while plant and fungi cells have an additional cell wall. Inhibition of haem synthesis is shown to lead to the accumulation of branched-chain ...
