Confirmation of fifth Candida auris clade by whole genome sequencing

Emerging Microbes and Infections, 2022
Candida auris has emerged globally as a multidrug-resistant pathogen causing outbreaks in health care facilities. Whole genome sequencing (WGS) analysis has identified four major clades, while earlier WGS data from a single Iranian isolate suggested the ...

Clade-specific chromosomal rearrangements and loss of subtelomeric adhesins in Candida auris

Genetics, 2021
Candida auris is an emerging fungal pathogen of rising concern due to global spread, the ability to cause healthcare-associated outbreaks, and antifungal resistance. Genomic analyses revealed that early contemporaneously detected cases of C.

Completion of the AAV Structural Atlas: Serotype Capsid Structures Reveals Clade-Specific Features

Viruses, 2021
The capsid structures of most Adeno-associated virus (AAV) serotypes, already assigned to an antigenic clade, have been previously determined. This study reports the remaining capsid structures of AAV7, AAV11, AAV12, and AAV13 determined by cryo-electron
