Genome-wide analysis of heat stress-stimulated transposon mobility in the human fungal pathogen <i>Cryptococcus deneoformans</i>
2022-06-10
Abstract excerpt
We recently reported transposon mutagenesis as a significant driver of spontaneous mutations in the human fungal pathogen Cryptococcus deneoformans during murine infection. Mutations caused by transposable element (TE) insertion into reporter genes were dramatically elevated at high temperature (37° versus 30°) in vitro, suggesting that heat stress stimulates TE mobility in the Cryptococcus genome. To explore the...
