(Rac) -Ketoconazole
(Rac) -Ketoconazole ((Rac) -R 41400) is an orally active antifungal imidazole compound. It inhibits ergosterol synthesis in fungi by targeting the cytochrome P450-dependent enzyme, 14α-sterol demethylase (CYP51), on the fungal cell membrane. This disruption leads to dysfunction of the cell membrane, ultimately hindering fungal growth and proliferation. (Rac) -Ketoconazole is applicable in studying fungal infections.
