Abstract

Mutations that completely inactivate Erg3p enable the prevalent human pathogen C. albicans to endure the azole antifungals in vitro . However, such null mutants are less frequently identified in azole-resistant clinical isolates than other resistance mechanisms, and previous studies have reported conflicting outcomes regarding antifungal resistance of these mutants in animal models of infection.
