Abstract excerpt
The human fungal pathogen Cryptococcus neoformans relies on a complex signaling network for the adaptation and survival at the host temperature. Protein phosphatase calcineurin is central to proliferation at 37°C but its exact contributions remain ill-defined. To better define genetic contributions to the C. neoformans temperature tolerance, 4031 gene knockouts were screened for genes essential at 37°C and under...
