Novel, synergistic antifungal combinations that target translation fidelity (2015)
Journal Article
Moreno-Martinez, E., Vallieres, C., Holland, S. L., & Avery, S. V. (in press). Novel, synergistic antifungal combinations that target translation fidelity. Scientific Reports, 5(16700), https://doi.org/10.1038/srep16700
