pH Response Pathways in Fungi: Adapting to Host-derived and Environmental Signals
1 Dec 2011
Abstract excerpt
Microorganisms are significantly affected when the ambient pH of their environment changes. They must therefore be able to sense and respond to these changes in order to survive. Previous investigators have studied various fungal species to define conserved pH-responsive signaling pathways. One of these pathways, known as the Pal/Rim pathway, is activated in response to alkaline pH signals, ultimately targeting...
