An antifungal defensin, AFP1, of Brassica juncea inhibits the growth of various microorganisms. The molecular details of this inhibition remain largely unknown. Herein, we reveal that a specific structure of fungal sphingolipid glucosylceramide (GlcCer) is critical for the sensitivity of Candida albicans cells to AFP1. Our results revealed that AFP...
