DHODH Inhibitors
This technology includes novel compounds that selectively inhibit fungal dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH), an essential enzyme in pyrimidine biosynthesis. These inhibitors are active against a range of fungal pathogens, including Cryptococcus neoformans and Candida auris, while sparing the human version of the enzyme. This selectivity reduces the...

Small Molecules with Antifungal Activity for Cryptococcosis
Researchers at the University of Arizona have found 140 novel antifungal compounds with the potential to treat cryptococcosis. These compounds have anti-Cryptococcus neoformans activity with IC50 less than 10 uM. Background: Fungal infections, although not very contagious, have affected 300 million people worldwide. Cryptococcosis is caused by opportunistic...

Method for Measuring Human Vision Cortical Magnification Factor
In human vision, varying amounts of neural resources are devoted to visual fields. Retinotopic mapping uses fMRI to give a projection of the visual field and its cortical representation in a subject. Cortical magnification factor (CMF) is a common measure of the ratio of the cortical areas devoted to each region of the visual field, to show visual acuity...

Broad Spectrum Inhibitors against Viral Methyltransferases
This innovation is a universal high throughput screening (HTS) assay to identify inhibitors targeting a binding site of viral methyltransferases (MTases) with a methyl donor. The inventors developed a fluorescence polarization (FP)-based HTS assay to target reference MTases, an essential enzyme to methylate the 5’-cap of viral RNA genome on SARS-CoV-2...

Allosteric Inhibitors of the Main Protease of SARS-CoV-2
In this report, the SARS-CoV-2 3CLpro was expressed and purified. By using a FRET-based enzymatic assay, the researchers have screened a library consisting of more than 300 different niclosamide derivatives and identified three molecules JMX0286, JMX0301, and JMX0941 as potent allosteric inhibitors against SARS-CoV-2 3CLpro, with IC50 values like that...

Calcimycin as Antifungals
A new antifungal treatment is necessary, as pathogens evolve and develop immunity to current methods. Here, the inventors present calcimycin (CMN) as a novel treatment of cryptococcosis caused by Cryptococcus neoformans (Cne) and likely Cryptococcus gattii (Cga). CMN prevents the protein from continuing to splice. While the current treatment methods...
