Molecular architecture of fungal cell walls revealed by solid-state NMR

Aspergillus fumigatus is a pathogenic fungus. Here the authors perform solid-state NMR measurements with intact Aspergillus cells, which provides insights into cell wall composition and dynamics and propose a structural model for fungal cell walls.
