fungemia/protease

The most frequent etiological factors of fungal infections in patients receiving total parenteral nutrition (TPN) belong to Candida genus of the yeastlike fungi. In the TPN patients the several infectious complications can develop: venous catheter infection, catheter candidemia (fungemia), fungal

Saccharomyces cerevisiae is the most widely used yeast in industrial/commercial food and beverage production and is even consumed as a nutritional supplement. Various cases of fungemia caused by this yeast species in severely debilitated traumatized or immune-deficient patients have been reported in

Candida parapsilosis (sensu lato), which represents a fungal complex composed of three genetically related species - Candida parapsilosis sensu stricto, Candida orthopsilosis and Candida metapsilosis, has emerged as an important yeast causing fungemia worldwide. The goal of the present work was to

BACKGROUND Candida auris is a multidrug resistant, emerging agent of fungemia in humans. Its actual global distribution remains obscure as the current commercial methods of clinical diagnosis misidentify it as C. haemulonii. Here we report the first draft genome of C. auris to explore the genomic
