Jawsamycin exhibits in vivo antifungal properties by inhibiting Spt14/Gpi3-mediated biosynthesis of glycosylphosphatidylinositol

Biosynthesis of glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) is essential for the integrity of the fungal cell wall. Here, the authors show that the natural product jawsamycin inhibits GPI biosynthesis by targeting a subunit of the fungal UDP-glycosyltransferase, and displays pronounced activity against patho...
