Abafungin is an antifungal agent that functions by inhibiting the transmethylation at the C-24 position of the sterol side chain, a reaction catalyzed by the enzyme sterol-C-24-methyltransferase. This mechanistic action disrupts ergosterol biosynthesis, which is crucial for fungal cell membrane integrity. Abafungin is used in research to study fungal pathogenesis and to develop new antifungal therapies.
