The surveillance and elimination of fungal pathogens rely heavily on the sentinel behaviour
of phagocytic cells of the innate immune system, especially macrophages and neutrophils …

Organisms are constantly exposed to a wide range of environmental changes, including
both short-term changes during their lifetime and longer-term changes across generations …

The Candida albicans cell wall maintains the structural integrity of the organism in addtion to

Fungal response to any stress is intricate, specific, and multilayered, though it employs only
a few evolutionarily conserved regulators. This comes with the assumption that one …

Previously, we identified long repeat sequences that are frequently associated with genome
rearrangements, including copy number variation (CNV), in many diverse isolates of the …

The survival of all microbes depends upon their ability to respond to environmental
challenges. To establish infection, pathogens such as C andida albicans must mount …

Protein structure and function can be altered by reactive oxygen species produced either by
