The <named-content content-type="genus-species">Aspergillus fumigatus</named-content> Mismatch Repair <italic toggle="yes">MSH2</italic> Homolog Is Important for Virulence and Azole Resistance

ABSTRACT The genetic stability of every living organism depends on accurate DNA replication and repair systems. Here, we investigated the Aspergillus fumigatus MSH2 mismatch repair (MMR) gene MshA and how it impacts virulence and the evolution of azole resistance. We examined mshA gene variation in...
