This study identifies IngB as an epigenetic regulator of azole tolerance in Aspergillus fumigatus, showing that its loss enables rapid acquired resistance under azole stress.

This study identifies arvA as critical for Aspergillus fumigatus morphogenesis and antifungal drug susceptibility but shows it is not required for virulence in murine models.

This study identifies a novel antifungal compound targeting ALS, validated through genome mining, biochemical assays, and a mouse model of invasive aspergillosis.

This study uses transcriptomics to identify metabolic shifts and genes important for maintaining mature A. fumigatus biofilms.
