A Molecular Window into the Biology and Epidemiology of Pneumocystis spp

1 Jul 2018

Abstract excerpt

SUMMARY Pneumocystis , a unique atypical fungus with an elusive lifestyle, has had an important medical history. It came to prominence as an opportunistic pathogen that not only can cause life-threatening pneumonia in patients with HIV infection and other immunodeficiencies but also can colonize the lungs of healthy individuals from a very early age. The genus Pneumocystis includes a group of closely related but...
