Abstract excerpt
Significance Drug-resistant subpopulations of microbes or tumor cells are difficult to detect but can confound disease treatment. In this deep characterization of a chronic fungal infection, we report unprecedented heterogeneity in the drug resistance-related gene MRR1 among Clavispora ( Candida ) lusitaniae isolates from a single individual. Cells expressing Mrr1 variants that led to drug resistance, by elevated...
