The mechanism of action of the new antifungal compound 089 was identified in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The compound had antifungal effects also on pathogenic fungi. While on Candida species the treatment induced cells death, on A. fumigatus strains it inhibited the conidia transition to hyphae. We carried out RNA sequencing analysis to evaluate at the molecular level the effect of the treatment on Aspergillus.
