Chemogenomic profiling in yeast reveals antifungal mode-of-action of polyene macrolactam auroramycin.

In this study, we report antifungal activity of auroramycin against Candida albicans, Candida tropicalis, and Cryptococcus neoformans. Auroramycin, a potent antimicrobial doubly glycosylated 24-membered polyene macrolactam, was previously isolated and characterized, following CRISPR-Cas9 mediated ac...
