API Description: Nikkomycin Z hydrochloride is an antifungal agent primarily used in research for its ability to inhibit chitin synthase, an enzyme essential for fungal cell wall formation. By blocking chitin production, it weakens the fungal cell wall, making the fungus vulnerable. It has shown potential against pathogens like Candida and Coccidioides (Valley Fever). Though not yet widely used clinically, it's being studied as a potential treatment for fungal infections, especially in combination with other antifungal drugs.
