AspMetNet

Systematic identification of antifungal drug targets by a metabolic network approach

Fungal infections pose an increasing threat for the immunocompromised. Limitations in antifungal therapy arise from non-specific symptoms of infection, poor diagnostics and comparatively few options for treatment. Currently established antifungal drugs interfere with the fungal cell wall or plasma membrane and are characterized by limited efficacy, severe side effects, or emerging pathogen resistance. Despite their promise to serve as highly specific antifungal targets, fungal metabolic pathways have been widely neglected.
