The role of Candida albicans homologous recombination factors Rad54 and Rdh54 in DNA damage sensitivity
(2011-09-27)
Abstract
Background
The fungal pathogen Candida albicans is frequently seen in immune suppressed patients, and resistance to one of the most widely used antifungals, fluconazole (FLC), can evolve rapidly. In recent years ...
GAL1-SceI directed site-specific genomic (gsSSG) mutagenesis: a method for precisely targeting point mutations in S. cerevisiae.
(2011-12-05)
Abstract
Background
Precise targeted mutations are defined as targeted mutations that do not require the retention of other genetic changes, such as marker genes, near the mutation site. In the yeast, S. cerevisiae, ...
Comparative genome sequence analysis underscores mycoparasitism as the ancestral life style of Trichoderma
(2011-04-18)
Abstract
Background
Mycoparasitism, a lifestyle where one fungus is parasitic on another fungus, has special relevance when the prey is a plant pathogen, providing a strategy for biological control of pests for plant ...
