Metabolic pathway competition sensitizes thioredoxin reductase-depleted Candida albicans to cell wall stress and antifungals

Wanjun Qi, Udita Roy, Chunhui Cai…·Julia R. Köhler

This study shows that Trr1 depletion in C. albicans increases sensitivity to antifungals and cell wall stress by disrupting metabolic pathways and cell wall synthesis.
