Top: FK506-resistant strains isolated from the Mucor circinelloides complex. Phenotypic analysis of FK506-resistant isolates in Mucor janssenii CBS185.68 (PS1), Mucor bainieri CBS293.63 (PS3), and Mucor atramentarius CBS202.28 (PS6). WT, wild-type; M, mendelian mutant; E, epimutant. Bottom: Schematic overview of epigenetic silencing contributing to antifungal resistance in Mucor species. fkbA expression enables FKBP12 production and FK506 sensitivity (yeast-like morphology). Epigenetic silencing of fkbA via RNAi and/or heterochromatin leads to FK506 resistance and hyphal growth. Generated with BioRender.com.

Anyone here have experience with topical #butenafine (Lotrimin Ultra) on #dogs, especially if the dog is going to lick off a bunch of it? My wife was using an #antifungal wipe. Then we tried #Lamisil — #terbinafine & the wipes. Then I added hydrocortisone, hoping to make him less likely to lick…

👑 The crown jewel of antifungal research has everyone talking. At the #museum of #biochemistry, all eyes are on the crown jewel of antifungal research: #Fluconazole (HY-B0101). A powerful #antifungal featured in 17 research publications.
🔗 www.medchemexpress.com/Fluconazole....
Researchers at @pmresearch-uhn.bsky.social have discovered how a molecule called palmitoyl-CoA acts as an “off switch” for a key fungal enzyme that makes fatty acids.
This finding could inform the development of more effective #antifungal therapies.
