Recent studies on fungi revealed that several cytosolic and membrane components migrate to the cell wall together with secreted proteins and biosynthetic polysaccharides to build a dynamic immunoreactive structure. New aspects of fungal cell wall assembly and biosynthesis, focusing on the potential of glycolipids, melanin, heat-shock proteins, historic and surface antigens as targets of drugs and antifungal anti-bodies are discussed.
