Newest firstThe human fungal pathogen Candidozyma auris (formerly Candida auris) can cause prolonged infection outbreaks with high mortality rates in healthcare settings. Treatment failures of patients arise not only from antifungal drug resistance, but also from intra-species variability in pathogenicity as well as induced hypermutation events in response to clinical therapy. Whole genome sequencing was used to identify gene…
Open article record in new tab ↗About one third of vascular plants develop glandular trichomes, which produce defensive compounds that repel herbivores and act as a natural biofactory for important pharmaceuticals such as artemisinin and cannabinoids. However, only a few regulators of glandular structures have been characterized so far. Here we have identified two closely-related MYB-like genes that redundantly inhibit the formation of glandular…
Candidiasis is a fungal infection caused by Candida species that have formed a biofilm on epithelial linings of the body. The most frequently affected areas include the vagina, oral cavity and the intestine. In severe cases, the fungi penetrate the epithelium and cause systemic infections. One approach to combat candidiasis is to prevent the adhesion of the fungal hyphae to the epithelium. Here we demonstrate that…
Open article record in new tab ↗The central complex of Drosophila melanogaster plays important functions in various behaviors, such as visual and olfactory memory, visual orientation, sleep, and movement control. However little is known about the genes regulating the development of the central complex. Here we report that a mutant gene affecting central complex morphology, cbd (central brain defect), was mapped to ten-a, a type II trans-membrane…
