The eukaryotic cell division cycle is a highly conserved process, featuring fluctuations in protein localization and abundance required for key cell cycle transitions. Here, we present a protocol for the spatiotemporal analysis of the proteome during the budding yeast cell division cycle using live-cell imaging. We describe steps for strain construction, cell cultivation, microscopy, and image analysis. Variations of this protocol can be applied for the spatiotemporal analysis of the proteome in different contexts, such as genetic and environmental perturbations. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Litsios et al..

Candida auris is an emerging, multidrug-resistant fungus that poses a threat in health care settings because of its persistence on surfaces and ability to cause severe infections, particularly in immunocompromised patients. First identified in Japan in 2009, C auris has since spread globally, leading to numerous outbreaks. Its unique virulence factors, such as biofilm formation and immune evasion, contribute to its resilience and resistance to eradication.

Achieving targeted hypermutation of specific genomic sequences without affecting other regions remains a key challenge in continuous evolution. To address this, we evolved a T7 RNA polymerase (RNAP) mutant that synthesizes single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) instead of RNA in vivo, while still exclusively recognizing the T7 promoter. By increasing the error rate of the T7 RNAP mutant, it generates mutated ssDNA that recombines with homologous sequences in the genome, leading to targeted genomic hypermutation.

Increased virulence and drug resistance in species of resulted in reduced disease control and further demand the development of potent antifungal drugs. The repurposing of non-antifungal drugs and combination therapy has become an attractive alternative to counter the emerging drug resistance and toxicity of existing antifungal drugs against and non-albicans species. This study aimed to accelerate antifungal drug development process by drug repurposing approach.

is a prevalent fungal pathogen responsible for infections in humans. As described recently, nanometer-sized extracellular vesicles (EVs) produced by play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of infection by facilitating host inflammatory responses and intercellular communication. This study investigates the functional properties of EVs released by biofilms formed by two strains-3147 (ATCC 10231) and SC5314-in eliciting host responses.
