Heterologous production, purification and crystallization of 24C-sterol methyltransferase from <i>Candida albicans</i>

2025-02-05

Abstract excerpt

Candida albicans is a critical priority fungal pathogen causing invasive fungal infections with high mortality rates in immunocompromised patients. The increasing fungal infection rate and resistance of fungal pathogens to existing antifungal treatments have emphasized the need for the development of novel antifungal medicine. The ergosterol biosynthesis pathway has been a successful target for antifungal compound...
