Evolution of small putative group I introns in the SSU rRNA gene locus of
BMC Research Notes, 2011 Background Group I introns (specifically subgroup IC1) are common in the nuclear ribosomal RNA genes of fungi. While most range in length from more than 200 to nearly 1800 nucleotides (nt) in length, several small putative (or degenerate) group I introns

CARD9 deficiency predisposing chromoblastomycosis: A case report and comparative transcriptome study
Frontiers in Immunology, 2022 CARD9 mutations are known to predispose patients to phaeohyphomycosis caused by different dematiaceous fungal species. In this study, we report for the first time a patient of chromoblastomycosis caused by Phialophora expanda, who harbored CARD9 mutation.
