Abstract excerpt
Enfumafungin, a triterpenoid antifungal compound, serves as the key starting material for the synthesis of ibrexafungerp and SCY-247. However, its low fermentation yield and high production cost constrain its supply, limiting drug accessibility and the ability to meet clinical demand. Consequently, enhancing enfumafungin biosynthesis is crucial for achieving large-scale production. In this study, physical and...
