Molecular approaches to the study of Coccidioides immitis
International Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2002 The study of the molecular biology of Coccidioides sp. is only just beginning. As the importance of coccidioidomycosis grows as a public health problem, our need for understanding of pathogenesis, immune responses, and improved antifungal therapy also increases in proportion.

A safe method of extracting DNA from Coccidioides immitis [PDF]
, 1995 Human-pathogenic fungi such as Coccidioides immitis and Histoplasma capsulatum must be handled in Biosafety level 3 containment facilities which make for a very awkward working environment (J.Y. Richmond and R.W. McKinney, eds.

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 3, May 2026.An 8‐year‐old dog developed acute respiratory distress that progressed to sepsis and death. Multidrug‐resistant Enterococcus faecium ST80 was isolated from the liver and kidney, while Klebsiella pneumoniae was detected in the lung by PCR. Whole‐genome sequencing showed that the ST80 isolates were genetically identical, suggesting hematogenous spread ...

The parasitic cell wall of Coccidioides immitis [PDF]
Medical Mycology, 2001 Coccidioides immitis is a human respiratory pathogen characterized by a parasitic cycle that is unique among fungi that cause systemic mycoses. Biochemical, molecular and immunological studies of the cell wall of C. immitis have focused on three distinct events of parasitic cell differentiation: isotropic growth, segmentation and endosporulation ...
