Sequence variation in CYP51A from the Y strain of Trypanosoma cruzi alters its sensitivity to inhibition [PDF]
CYP51 (sterol 14α‐demethylase) is an efficient target for clinical and agricultural antifungals and an emerging target for treatment of Chagas disease, the infection that is caused by multiple strains of a protozoan pathogen Trypanosoma cruzi. Here, we analyze CYP51A from the Y strain T. cruzi.

Afu-Emi1 Contributes to Stress Adaptation and Voriconazole Susceptibility in Aspergillus fumigatus
Invasive aspergillosis (IA) is the second most common invasive fungal disease and is associated with high mortality rates. Aspergillus fumigatus is the predominant causal agent of this life-threatening infection.

Structural basis of HapE P88L -linked antifungal triazole resistance in Aspergillus fumigatus
The mutation P88L in subunit HapE of the CCAAT transcription factor causes resistance of Aspergillus fumigatus to azole drugs due to altered binding, bending, and transcription of target promoters.

Experimental and in-host evolution of triazole resistance in human pathogenic fungi
The leading fungal pathogens causing systemic infections in humans are Candida spp., Aspergillus fumigatus, and Cryptococcus neoformans. The major class of antifungals used to treat such infections are the triazoles, which target the cytochrome P450 ...

RNA interference (RNAi) technologies, host‐induced gene silencing (HIGS) and spray‐induced gene silencing (SIGS), potentially offer sustainable crop protection. However, efficacy, costs, regulatory clarity, and socio‐environmental impacts require further evaluation for broader use.

A simple method to detect the tandem repeat of the cyp51A promoter in azole-resistant strains of Aspergillus fumigatus [PDF]
We designed primers and cycling probes to detect the tandem repeat (TR) of cyp51A promoter in Aspergillus fumigatus. A control-probe was designed to anneal to the outside of the TR region, whereas a TR-probe was designed to anneal to the inside of the TR region. For amplification and probe-hydrolysis detection, the CycleavePCR system was used. Although
