Rapid detection of ERG11 polymorphism associated azole resistance in Candida tropicalis.
Increasing reports of azole resistance in Candida tropicalis, highlight the development of rapid resistance detection techniques. Nonsynonymous mutations in the lanosterol C14 alpha-demethylase (ERG11) gene is one of the predominant mechanisms of azole ...

Analysis of molecular resistance to azole and echinocandin in Candida species in patients with vulvovaginal candidiasis [PDF]
Background and Purpose: Vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC) is considered the most common mucosal infection caused by Candida species. Azoles were considered the firstline treatment for VVC or recurrent vulvovaginal candidiasis (RVVC) in both healthy and ...

Improvement of experimental testing and network training conditions with genome-wide microarrays for more accurate predictions of drug gene targets [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Genome-wide microarrays have been useful for predicting chemical-genetic interactions at the gene level. However, interpreting genome-wide microarray results can be overwhelming due to the vast output of gene expression data combined with off-

The zinc cluster proteins Upc2 and Ecm22 promote filamentation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae by sterol biosynthesis-dependent and -independent pathways. [PDF]
The transition between a unicellular yeast form to multicellular filaments is crucial for budding yeast foraging and the pathogenesis of many fungal pathogens such as Candida albicans.

Regulation of ERG3, ERG6, and ERG11 Genes in Antifungal-Resistant isolates of Candida parapsilosis [PDF]
Candida parapsilosis is one of the five common strains of yeasts involved in invasive candidiasis. The expression analysis of sterol biosynthesis pathway genes, which are associated with resistance, can assist the better understanding of antifungal resistance mechanisms.The antifungal susceptibility of 120 clinical C. parapsilosis isolates was examined.
