Phagocytic predation by the fungivorous amoeba <i>Protostelium aurantium</i> targets metal ion and redox homeostasis

2019-07-02

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> Predatory interactions among microbes are considered to be a major evolutionary driving force for biodiversity and the defense against phagocytic killing. The fungivorous amoeba Protostelium aurantium has a wide fungal food spectrum but strongly discriminates among major pathogenic members of the Saccharomycotina . While C. albicans is not recognized, C. glabrata is rapidly internalized, but...
