Molecular cloning and sequence analysis of yps-3, a yeast-phase-specific gene in the dimorphic fungal pathogen Histoplasma capsulatum
1 Apr 1994
Abstract excerpt
Genes specifically expressed in the parasitic yeast phase of Histoplasma capsulatum have been cloned to clarify the mechanisms underlying both pathogenesis and morphogenesis in this human dimorphic fungal pathogen. Previous studies have determined that the yeast-phase-specific gene, yps-3, is expressed differentially in two non-isogenic strains which differ in their thermotolerance and virulence. We have cloned...
