Protein-mediated stabilization of amphotericin B increases its efficacy against diverse fungal pathogens

ABSTRACT Amphotericin B (AMB), a potent and broad-spectrum antifungal agent, faces solubility and toxicity challenges in clinical use. In this study, we explored the ability of DewY and EASΔ15, class I fungal hydrophobin proteins with unique amphipathic properties and self-assembly capabilities, to...
