No Chance to Survive: Mo-CBP(3)-PepII Synthetic Peptide Acts on Cryptococcus neoformans by Multiple Mechanisms of Action
Multidrug-resistant Cryptococcus neoformans is an encapsulated yeast causing a high mortality rate in immunocompromised patients. Recently, the synthetic peptide Mo-CBP(3)-PepII emerged as a potent anticryptococcal molecule with an MIC(50) at low concentration. Here, the mechanisms of action of Mo-C...
