Multi-drug resistant (MDR) Candida albicans (CA) is a rare cause of invasive central nervous system infection. Here we describe a case of MDR CA cerebral abscess, performed comprehensive whole genome sequencing (WGS) with hybrid assembly of the MDR CA isolate, attempted to identify candidate novel resistance genes, and conducted a comparative analysis to other strains of CA and MDR C. auris (an emerging global threat). Whole genome sequencing with hybrid assembly was performed using Illumina paired end and Oxford Nanopore long read technologies. Complete genome assembly allowed us to perform comparative analyses to other fully sequenced strains of Candida, and resolve the ploidy state of our clinical isolate which is known to impact the mutational spectrum and mutation rate of Candida strains following exposure to antifungal drugs. Comprehensive whole genome sequencing (WGS) with hybrid assembly of a multi-drug resistant (MDR) Candida albicans (CA) isolate causing cerebral abscess was performed using Illumina paired end and Oxford Nanopore long read technologies. The innovative technologies utilized here enabled us to resolve fragmented assemblies, and implement comprehensive and detailed genomic analyses involved in antifungal resistance of Candida spp. Functionally important genes (MDR1, CDR2 and SQN2) involved in antifungal resistance were identified and a phylogenetic analysis of the clinical isolate was performed. Additionally, our clinical isolate was found to share 4 single nucleotide polymorphisms with two other sequenced strains of MDR C. auris (381 and 386) including translation elongation factor EF1α and EF3, ATPase activity associated proteins, and the lysine tRNA ligase.
