CO2 influences amphotericin B resistance and Candida auris colonization
Candida auris, an emerging multidrug-resistant fungal pathogen, preferentially colonizes human skin, leading to outbreaks of systemic infections. A recent study by Phan-Canh et al. characterized CO2-sensing pathways in C. auris, which regulate amphotericin B susceptibility and skin colonization.

White-Brown switching controls phenotypic plasticity and virulence of Candida auris
Using transcriptomics and reverse genetics, Phan-Canh et al. present a comprehensive analysis of genes governing phenotypic White-Brown switching in the multidrug-resistant fungal pathogen Candida auris. White and Brown morphotypes exhibit distinct stress responses and virulence traits, linked to complex gene regulatory networks that govern the phenotypic plasticity during fungal infections.
