causes the fatal fungal bloodstream infection in humans called Candidiasis. Most of the species are resistant to the antifungals used to treat them. Drug-resistant poses very serious public health issues. To overcome this, the development of effec...
We present a novel Java-based program denominated PeptiDesCalculator for computing peptide descriptors. These descriptors include: redefinitions of known protein parameters to suite the peptide domain, generalization schemes for the global descriptio...
New talaromydien A and talaroisocoumarin A (), together with nine known compounds (-), were isolated from a culture of the marine-derived sp. ZZ1616 in potato dextrose broth medium. Structures of the new compounds were elucidated based on their HRE...

A series of novel tetrazole derivatives was synthetized using N-alkylation or Michael-type addition reactions, and screened for their fungistatic potential against Candida albicans (the lack of endpoint = 100%). Among them, the selected compounds 2d,...
The ability of soluble C. albicans 20A (serotype A) mannoprotein (CMP) to serve as a ligand for toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) and its co-receptors was examined using commercially available and stably-transfected HEK293 cells that express human TLR4, MD...
