Antifungal drug resistance in Candida species

Journal of Global Antimicrobial Resistance, 2014
Invasive Candida infections are well established infectious entities of immunocompromised or critically ill patients and are characterised by high morbidity and mortality. Owing to the common eukaryotic structure of fungi and humans, a limited number of antifungal drugs is available for therapeutic purposes.

RNAi epimutations conferring antifungal drug resistance are inheritable. [PDF]

Nat Commun
Epimutations modify gene expression and lead to phenotypic variation while the encoding DNA sequence remains unchanged. Epimutations mediated by RNA interference (RNAi) and/or chromatin modifications can confer antifungal drug resistance and may impact ...

Examining Signatures of Natural Selection in Antifungal Resistance Genes Across Aspergillus Fungi

Frontiers in Fungal Biology, 2021
Certain Aspergillus fungi cause aspergillosis, a set of diseases that typically affect immunocompromised individuals. Most cases of aspergillosis are caused by Aspergillus fumigatus, which infects millions of people annually.
