Efficient Generation of Multiple Seamless Point Mutations Conferring Triazole Resistance in Aspergillus fumigatus
2 Jun 2023
Abstract excerpt
Aspergillus fumigatus is a common human fungal pathogen that can cause a range of diseases. Triazoles are used to treat A. fumigatus infections, but resistance is increasing due to mutations in genes such as cyp51A, hmg1 and overexpression of efflux pumps. Verifying the importance of these mutations is time-consuming, and although the use of CRISPR-Cas9 methods has shortened this process, it still relies on the...
