A Multi-Host Approach for the Systematic Analysis of Virulence Factors inCryptococcus neoformans
11 Aug 2014
Abstract excerpt
A multi-host approach was followed to screen a library of 1201 signature-tagged deletion strains of Cryptococcus neoformans mutants to identify previously unknown virulence factors. The primary screen was performed using a Caenorhabditis elegans-C. neoformans infection assay. The hits among these strains were reconfirmed as less virulent than the wild type in the insect Galleria mellonella-C. neoformans infection...
