Abstract excerpt

Cryptococcus gattii and C. neoformans are pathogenic yeasts that cause meningoencephalitis. C. gattii has four molecular types: VGI, VGII, VGIII, and VGIV. Furthermore, three genotypes have been reported for VGII, and a high pathogenicity of the VGIIa genotype has been proposed. The VGIIa strain has been isolated from a patient in Japan, but little is known about the characteristics of the polysaccharides in this...
