CRISPR-Cas9 Editing Induces Loss of Heterozygosity in the Pathogenic Yeast Candida parapsilosis

ABSTRACT Genetic manipulation is often used to study gene function. However, unplanned genome changes (including single nucleotide polymorphisms [SNPs], aneuploidy, and loss of heterozygosity [LOH]) can affect the phenotypic traits of the engineered strains. Here, we compared the effect of classical...
