Abstract excerpt
Inactivation of the gene encoding the transcriptional activator Ace2 in the fungal pathogen Candida glabrata results in an almost 200-fold increase in virulence characterised by acute mortality and a massive over-stimulation of the pro-inflammatory arm of the innate immune system. In this study w...
