Pathogen Enzyme-Mediated Alkoxyamine Homolysis as a Killing Mechanism of Aspergillus fumigatus
4 Jul 2025
Abstract excerpt
The emergence of antifungal-resistant Aspergillus fumigatus (A. fumigatus) became a serious public health concern, underscoring the need for new effective antifungal agents. Here, we present a strategy based on the in situ generation of radical species that are toxic to the pathogen. The synthesis of an alkoxyamine linked to a peptide substrate recognized by A. fumigatus-secreted dipeptidyl peptidase is...
