Hsp90-dependent regulatory circuitry controlling temperature-dependent fungal development and virulence
20 Jan 2014
Abstract excerpt
The pathogenic fungi Candida albicans, Aspergillus fumigatus, and Cryptococcus neoformans are an increasing cause of human mortality, especially in immunocompromised populations. During colonization and adaptation to various host environments, these fungi undergo morphogenetic alterations that allow for survival within the host. One key environmental cue driving morphological changes is external temperature. The...
