tRNA hypomodification facilitates 5-fluorocytosine resistance via cross-pathway control system activation in Aspergillus fumigatus
23 Dec 2024
Abstract excerpt
Increasing antifungal drug resistance is a major concern associated with human fungal pathogens like Aspergillus fumigatus. Genetic mutation and epimutation mechanisms clearly drive resistance, yet the epitranscriptome remains relatively untested. Here, deletion of the A. fumigatus transfer RNA (tRNA)-modifying isopentenyl transferase ortholog, Mod5, led to altered stress response and unexpected resistance...
