This study identifies SmpR as a transcription factor that coordinates secondary metabolism and antibacterial defense in A. fumigatus in response to bacterial signals.

This study identifies synthetic peptide mimics that kill Candida albicans and synergize with caspofungin to prevent infection, showing efficacy in vitro and in vivo without resistance development.

This study identifies a fungal commensal that competes with Candida albicans to reduce its burden and mitigate candidiasis in mice.

The paper identifies toxic intermediates in fungal metabolic pathways as potential antifungal targets using a random forest model and provides a web-service for exploration.
