Candida albicans gains azole resistance by altering sphingolipid composition

The fungal pathogen Candida albicans is diploid, which hinders genome-wide studies. Here, Gao et al. present a piggyBac transposon-mediated mutagenesis system using stable haploid C. albicans strains, and use it to identify genes and mechanisms underlying azole resistance.
