Signature Gene Expression Reveals Novel Clues to the Molecular Mechanisms of Dimorphic Transition in Penicillium marneffei
16 Oct 2014
Abstract excerpt
Systemic dimorphic fungi cause more than one million new infections each year, ranking them among the significant public health challenges currently encountered. Penicillium marneffei is a systemic dimorphic fungus endemic to Southeast Asia. The temperature-dependent dimorphic phase transition between mycelium and yeast is considered crucial for the pathogenicity and transmission of P. marneffei, but the...
