Lanosterol 14α-demethylase (CYP51) is an essential enzyme in the fungal life cycle and also an important target for antifungal drug development. Selective inhibition of the enzyme would cause depletion of ergosterol and accumulation of lanosterol and result in the growth inhibition of the fungal cell [1]. [...]
