Azole-induced cell wall carbohydrate patches kill Aspergillus fumigatus

Azole antifungals inhibit fungal ergosterol biosynthesis. Here, Geißel et al. show that the fungicidal activity of azoles involves excessive synthesis of cell wall carbohydrates at defined spots along the hyphae, leading to formation of membrane invaginations and eventually rupture of the plasma mem...
