Antifungal Effect of A Chimeric Peptide Hn-Mc against Pathogenic Fungal Strains
It is difficult to identify new antifungal agents because of their eukaryotic nature. However, antimicrobial peptides can well differentiate among cell types owing to their variable amino acid content. This study aimed to investigate the antifungal effect of Hn-Mc, a chimeric peptide comprised of th...
