The Role of Amino Acid Permeases and Tryptophan Biosynthesis in Cryptococcus neoformans Survival.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2015

Fernandes João Daniel Santos, Martho Kevin, Tofik Veridiana, Vallim Marcelo A, Pascon Renata C

Abstract excerpt

Metabolic diversity is an important factor during microbial adaptation to different environments. Among metabolic processes, amino acid biosynthesis has been demonstrated to be relevant for survival for many microbial pathogens, whereas the association between pathogenesis and amino acid uptake and recycling are less well-established. Cryptococcus neoformans is an opportunistic fungal pathogen with many habitats....
