Disease: Madurella mycetomatis infection

Kinome analysis of Madurella mycetomatis identified kinases in the cell wall integrity pathway as novel potential therapeutic drug targets in eumycetoma caused by Madurella mycetomatis

Eumycetoma is a serious fungal infection that causes large tumors under the skin and is very difficult to treat. Scientists used computer analysis to find special proteins called kinases in the fungus that might be good targets for new drugs. They discovered that proteins involved in the fungus’s cell wall are promising targets, which could lead to better treatments for this neglected disease.
