Human and murine <i>Cryptococcus neoformans</i> infection selects for common genomic changes in an environmental isolate

2022-04-12

Abstract excerpt

A pet cockatoo was the suspected source of Cryptococcus neoformans recovered from the cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) of an immunocompromised patient with cryptococcosis based on the molecular analyses available in 2000. Here we report whole genome sequence analysis of the clinical and cockatoo strains. Both are closely related MATα strains belonging to the VNII lineage, confirming that the human infection likely ori...
