DOI: 10.1093/mmy/myaa064
Abstract: Candida albicans is a pathogenic fungus that causes deep mycosis in immunocompromised patients and forms a biofilm on catheter surfaces. Here we showed that C. albicans infection of silkworms led to biofilm formation on the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pbio.3000422
Abstract: Histone H3 and its variants regulate gene expression but the latter are absent in most ascomycetous fungi. Here, we report the identification of a variant histone H3, which we have designated H3VCTG because of its… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2020.01027
Abstract: Biofilms formed by the fungal pathogen Candida albicans are resistant to many of the antifungal agents commonly used in the clinic. Previous reports suggest that protease inhibitors, specifically inhibitors of aspartyl proteases, could be effective… read more here.
