Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to determine how mutations in CpERG11 and CpTAC1 contribute to fluconazole resistance in a collection of clinical isolates. METHODS: Sequences of CpERG11 and CpTAC1 were determined for 35 resistant Candida parapsilosis clinical isolates. A plasmid-based CRISPR-Cas9 system was used to introduce mutations leading to amino acid substitution in CpTac1 and CpErg11. Triazole...
