Genome engineering in the yeast pathogen Candida glabrata using the CRISPR-Cas9 system.

Among Candida species, the opportunistic fungal pathogen Candida glabrata has become the second most common causative agent of candidiasis in the world and a major public health concern. Yet, few molecular tools and resources are available to explore the biology of C. glabrata and to better understand its virulence during infection.
