Efflux pump-mediated resistance to antifungal compounds can be prevented by conjugation with triphenylphosphonium cation

Antifungal resistance due to upregulation of efflux pumps is common in Candida albicans. Here, the authors show that conjugation with mitochondria-targeting triphenylphosphonium cation can enhance or restore the antifungal activity of potential efflux pump substrates.
