Comparative Genomics of Serial Isolates of <i>Cryptococcus neoformans</i> Reveals Gene Associated With Carbon Utilization and Virulence
28 Mar 2013
Abstract excerpt
The opportunistic fungal pathogen Cryptococcus neoformans is a leading cause of mortality among the human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome population and is known for frequently causing life-threatening relapses. To investigate the potential contribution of in-host microevolution to persistence and relapse, we have analyzed two serial isolates obtained from a patient with acquired...
