The transcription factor Pdr802 regulates Titan cell formation, quorum sensing, and pathogenicity of <i>Cryptococcus neoformans</i>

2020-06-30

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Cryptococcus neoformans is a ubiquitous, opportunistic fungal pathogen that kills almost 200,000 people worldwide each year. It is acquired when mammalian hosts inhale the infectious propagules; these are deposited in the lung and, in the context of immunocompromise, may disseminate to the brain and cause lethal meningoencephalitis.
