Antifungal Peptides as Therapeutic Agents [PDF]
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2020 Fungi have been used since ancient times in food and beverage-making processes and, more recently, have been harnessed for the production of antibiotics and in processes of relevance to the bioeconomy. Moreover, they are starting to gain attention as a key component of the human microbiome. However, fungi are also responsible for human infections.
