Abstract The overexpression of genes frequently arises in Nakaseomyces (formerly Candida ) glabrata via gain-of-function mutations, gene duplication or aneuploidies, with important consequences on pathogenesis traits and antifungal drug resistance. This highlights the need to develop specific genetic tools mimic study amplification this fungal pathogen. Here, we report development, validation, applications first CRISPR activation (CRISPRa) system N. for targeted overexpression. Using system, demonstrate ability CRISPRa drive high levels expression , further assess optimal guide RNA targeting robust We overexpress involved resistance, detect corresponding phenotypic alterations these key traits, including characterization novel phenotypes. Finally, capture strain variation using our two commonly used backgrounds. Together, tool will expand capacity functional pathogen, numerous possibilities future applications.

Microsphaeropsis, taxonomically classified within the kingdom fungi, phylum Ascomycota, subphylum Deuteromycotina, class Coelomycetes, order Sphaeropsidales, and family Sphaeropsidaceae, exhibit a ubiquitous distribution across various geographical regions. These fungi are known for their production of secondary metabolites, characterized by both structural novelty potent biological activity. Consequently, they represent significant reservoir advancement novel pharmaceuticals. In this paper, systematic review was present, marking analysis metabolites synthesized Microsphaeropsis reported between 1980 2023. A total 112 compounds, comprising polyketones, macrolides, terpenoids, nitrogen-containing were from Microsphaeropsis. Remarkably, among these 49 discoveries, contribution to field. concise summary diverse activities provided, including antibacterial, antitumor, antiviral properties other bioactivities. This stands as valuable reference, poised guide further investigations into active natural products derived potential contributions development medicinal resources.
