The integration of host-derived biomarkers into clinical processes to predict the risk and progression of fungal disease is a promising approach in immunocompromised patients. Recent insights into human antifungal immunity have highlighted the remarkable influence of host genetics in modulating susceptibility to infection. In this chapter, we describe protocols to examine human genetic variation and to assess its functional consequences using the pattern recognition receptor PTX3 as an example.European Society of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases (Research Grant 2012 to A.C.) and the Fundação para a Ciência e Tecnologia (FCT) (SFRH/BPD/96176/2013 to C.C. and IF/00735/2014 to A.C.).
