Characterisation of putative class 1A DHODH-like proteins from Mucorales and dematiaceous mould species. [PDF]
Olorofim is a new antifungal in clinical development which has a novel mechanism of action against dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH). DHODH form a ubiquitous family of enzymes in the de novo pyrimidine biosynthetic pathway and are split into class 1A,

Disseminated Phaeohyphomycosis Due to <i>Alternaria alternata</i> in a Liver Transplant Recipient: Successful Treatment With Isavuconazole, a Case Report and Literature Review. [PDF]
Phaeohyphomycoses are a heterogeneous group of diseases caused by several genera of pigmented fungi, also called dematiaceous fungi. These organisms are increasingly recognized as emerging opportunistic pathogens in immunocompromised patients, particularly solid organ transplant recipients. Among them, Alternaria is the most frequently associated genus,
