Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Azole resistance in Candida tropicalis has increased worldwide and is largely driven by an emerging population previously reported Cluster AZR/X. This cluster exhibits high-level azole resistance driven by ERG11 A395T/W mutations accompanied by amplification of mutant ERG11 alleles, underscoring the clinical need for a quantitative, mechanism-informed molecular assay. METHODS: We developed and...
