A trade-off between proliferation and defense in the fungal pathogen <i>Cryptococcus</i> at alkaline pH is controlled by the transcription factor GAT201
2023-06-14
Abstract excerpt
Cryptococcus is a fungal pathogen whose virulence relies on proliferation in and dissemination to host sites, and on synthesis of a defensive yet metabolically costly polysaccharide capsule. Regulatory pathways required for Cryptococcus virulence include a GATA-like transcription factor, Gat201, that regulates Cryptococcal virulence in both capsule-dependent and capsule-independent ways. Here we show that Gat201...
