| Abstract | The Present Inventors Have Discovered That 3-Isopropylmalate Dehydratase Is Essential For Fungal Pathogenicity. Specifically, The Inhibition Of 3-Isopropylmalate Dehydratase Gene Expression In Fungi Results In No Signs Of Successful Infection Or Lesions. Thus, 3-Isopropylmalate Dehydratase Can Be Used As A Target For The Identification Of Antibiotics, Preferably Antifungals. Accordingly, The Present Invention Provides Methods For The Identification Of Compounds That Inhibit 3-Isopropylmalate Dehydratase Expression Or Activity. The Methods Of The Invention Are Useful For The Identification Of Antibiotics, Preferably Antifungals. |
