In vitro evolution of caspofungin resistance in Candidozyma auris via FKS1 hotspot I mutations results in moderate fitness trade-offs but no reduction in virulence

Zoe K. Ross, Sakinah Alsayegh, Yixin Zhao, Steven McPherson, Carol A. Munro, Alexander Lorenz

This study shows that FKS1-S639 mutations confer caspofungin resistance in C. auris but cause moderate fitness trade-offs without reducing virulence.

DNA sequence differences are determinants of meiotic recombination outcome

Simon Brown, Samantha J. Mpaulo, Mimi N. Asogwa, Marie Jézéquel, Matthew C. Whitby, Alexander Lorenz

The paper shows that DNA sequence polymorphisms between homologs influence meiotic recombination rates and crossover outcomes in S. pombe.

Immediate visualization of recombination events and chromosome segregation defects in fission yeast meiosis

Dmitriy Li, Marianne Roca, Raif Yuecel, Alexander Lorenz

This paper introduces visual assays for analyzing meiotic recombination and chromosome segregation in fission yeast using fluorescent markers and imaging techniques.

Genetic interactions between the chromosome axis-associated protein Hop1 and homologous recombination determinants in Schizosaccharomyces pombe

Simon Brown, Olga D. Jarosińska, Alexander Lorenz

This study investigates the genetic interactions of Hop1 with homologous recombination factors in fission yeast, finding that Hop1's HORMA domain is essential for meiotic recombination and chromatin localization, but it has a limited role beyond break formation.
