Environmental interactions with amoebae as drivers of bacterial-fungal endosymbiosis and pathogenicity
2019-03-21
Abstract excerpt
Opportunistic infections by environmental fungi are a growing clinical problem, driven by an increasing population of people with immunocompromising conditions. Spores of the Mucorales order are ubiquitious in the environment but can also cause acute invasive infections in humans through germination and evasion of the mammalian host immune system. How they achieve this, and the evolutionary drivers underlying the...
