Internalization of the host alkaline pH signal in a fungal pathogen

2020-10-19

Abstract excerpt

The ability for cells to internalize extracellular cues allows them to adapt to novel and stressful environments. This adaptability is especially important for microbial pathogens that must sense and respond to drastic changes when encountering the human host. Cryptococcus neoformans is an environmental fungus and opportunistic pathogen that naturally lives in slightly acidic reservoirs, but must adapt to the rel...
