Targeted gene deletions in the dimorphic fungal pathogen Histoplasma using an optimized episomal CRISPR/Cas9 system
ABSTRACT The rapid development of CRISPR/CRISPR-associated (Cas) systems has revolutionized the ability to produce genetic mutations in a desired locus, particularly in organisms with low rates of homologous recombination. Histoplasma is an important respiratory and systemic fungal pathogen that has...
