We detected the well-known antifungal resistance mutations, responsible for azole resistance in C. auris. Despite no ERG2, ERG6, and FKS mutation identified, the isolate was found to be resistant to AmpB and caspofungin based on the CDC tentative breakpoints which could be related to unidentified mutations.
