Similar evolutionary trajectories in an environmental Cryptococcus neoformans isolate after human and murine infection
5 Jan 2023
Abstract excerpt
recovered from an immunocompromised patient with cryptococcosis based on molecular analyses available in 2000. Here, we report whole genome sequence analysis of the clinical and cockatoo strains. Both are closely related MATα strains belonging to the VNII lineage, confirming that the human infection likely originated from pet bird exposure. The two strains differ by 61 single nucleotide polymorphisms, including...
