No. F7129) is a novel antifungal in that its mechanism of action involves blocking DNA synthesis and inhibiting thymidylate synthetase. Sordarin (Cat.

A4888), a polyene with high affinity for sterol binding, is one of the most potent antifungal drugs; its mechanism produces pores in the membrane surface of the yeast, resulting in leakage of the cell contents.
