Identification of <i>Cryptococcus neoformans</i> Temperature-Regulated Genes with a Genomic-DNA Microarray

Abstract excerpt

The ability to survive and proliferate at 37 degrees C is an essential virulence attribute of pathogenic microorganisms. A partial-genome microarray was used to profile gene expression in the human-pathogenic fungus Cryptococcus neoformans during growth at 37 degrees C. Genes with orthologs involved in stress responses were induced during growth at 37 degrees C, suggesting that a conserved transcriptional program...
