this journal article also discussed Aspergillosis, which is a condition in which Aspergillus fumigatus infects the lungs causing fatal mycoses in humans as well as animals resulting in about 200,000 cases per year, in humans only, and it cases death in about half of this number. | this journal article also discussed Aspergillosis, which is a condition in which Aspergillus fumigatus infects the lungs causing fatal mycoses in humans as well as animals resulting in about 200,000 cases per year, in humans only, and it cases death in about half of this number. | ||
So, it is really important to study this protein and understands the mechanism with which it works in order to fight the infection and discover a new anti-fungal drug that will work better for both humans and animals. | So, it is really important to study this protein and understands the mechanism with which it works in order to fight the infection and discover a new anti-fungal drug that will work better for both humans and animals. | ||
