Targeted gene disruption reveals an adhesin indispensable for pathogenicity of Blastomyces dermatitidis.

The Journal of experimental medicine - 19 Apr 1999

Brandhorst T T, Wüthrich M, Warner T, Klein B

Abstract excerpt

Systemic fungal infections are becoming more common and difficult to treat, yet the pathogenesis of these infectious diseases remains poorly understood. In many cases, pathogenicity can be attributed to the ability of the fungi to adhere to target tissues, but the lack of tractable genetic systems has limited progress in understanding and interfering with the offending fungal products. In Blastomyces...
