| BioRxiv
Abstract Background Fungal infections are an increasing concern, particularly among immunocompromised patients and those with comorbidities who require multiple medications. However, the effects of drugs targeting human pathways on fungal cells, and whether they influence antifungal drug responses, are poorly understood. Methods We systematically analyzed clinical guidelines to shortlist non-antifungal drugs commonly used in conditions that increase the likelihood of fungal infections.

Abstract Nutritional codependence (syntrophy) has underexplored potential to improve biotechnological processes by using cooperating cell types. So far, design of yeast syntrophic communities has required extensive genetic manipulation, as the co-inoculation of most eukaryotic microbial auxotrophs does not result in cooperative growth. Here we employ high-throughput phenotypic screening to systematically test pairwise combinations of auxotrophic Saccharomyces cerevisiae deletion mutants.
