Tavaborole is a boron-based pharmaceutical agent indicated for the topical treatment of toenail onychomycosis, a fungal infection of the nail and nail bed due to Trichophyton rubrum or Trichophyton mentagrophytes infection. Tavaborole acts by inhibiting an aminoacyl-transfer ribonucleic acid (tRNA) synthetase (AARS) - Leucyl-tRNA synthetase. Leucyl-tRNA synthetase is an essential fungal enzyme required for protein synthesis and for the catalysis of ATP-dependent ligation of L-leucine to tRNA(Leu). Tavaborole’s low molecular weight (approximately half of most antifungals, such as terbinafine and efinaconazole) permits optimal nail plate penetration, superior to that of existing topical antifungal medications.   NCATS
