Transposon mobilization in the human fungal pathogen <i>Cryptococcus deneoformans</i> is mutagenic during infection and promotes drug resistance <i>in vitro</i>

2020-01-30

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> When transitioning from the environment, pathogenic microorganisms must adapt rapidly to survive in hostile host conditions. This is especially true for environmental fungi that cause opportunistic infections in immunocompromised patients since these microbes are not well adapted human pathogens. Cryptococcus species are yeast-like fungi that cause lethal infections, especially in HIV-infected...
