The <i>Neosartorya fischeri</i> Antifungal Protein 2 (NFAP2): A New Potential Weapon against Multidrug-Resistant <i>Candida auris</i> Biofilms

<i>Candida auris</i> is a potential multidrug-resistant pathogen able to persist on indwelling devices as a biofilm, which serve as a source of catheter-associated infections. <i>Neosartorya fischeri</i> antifungal protein 2 (NFAP2) is a cysteine-rich, cationic protein with p...
