Abstract

Amphotericin methyl ester (AmE) is an interesting derivative of amphotericin B (AmB) because of its enhancement of selectivity against the fungicells. Both AmB and AmE molecules differ by the structure of their polar heads. This work deals with a theoretical study of conformations of the polar head of AmE in the presence of hydration water molecules. The results will be compared with our previous work concerning AmB.
