Cryptococcus neoformans adapts to the host environment through TOR-mediated remodeling of phospholipid asymmetry
18 Oct 2023
Abstract excerpt
Abstract Cryptococcus spp. are environmental fungi that first must adapt to the host environment before they can cause life-threatening meningitis in immunocompromised patients. Host CO 2 concentrations are 100-fold higher than the external environment and strains unable to grow at host CO 2 concentrations are not pathogenic. Using a genetic screening and transcriptional profiling approach, we report that the TOR...
