Paracoccin overexpression in <i>Paracoccidioides brasiliensis</i> reveals the influence of chitin hydrolysis on fungal virulence and host immune response
2019-01-09
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Paracoccidioides brasiliensis and P. lutzii , etiological agents of paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM), develop as mycelia at 25-30 °C and as yeast at 35-37 °C. Only a few Paracoccidioides spp. proteins are well characterized. Thus, we studied paracoccin (PCN) from P. brasiliensis , its role in the fungus biology, and its relationship with the host innate immune cells. Cloning and heterologous expr...
