Dihydrofolate Reductase Is a Valid Target for Antifungal Development in the Human Pathogen Candida albicans
While the folate biosynthetic pathway has provided a rich source of antibacterial, antiprotozoal, and anticancer therapies, it has not yet been exploited to develop uniquely antifungal agents. Although there have been attempts to develop fungal-specific inhibitors of dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR),...
