The RAM signaling pathway links morphology, thermotolerance, and CO <sub>2</sub> tolerance in the global fungal pathogen <i>Cryptococcus neoformans</i>
2022-08-14
Abstract excerpt
The environmental pathogen Cryptococcus neoformans claims over 180,000 lives each year. Survival of this basidiomycete at host CO 2 concentrations has only recently been considered an important virulence trait. Through screening gene knockout libraries constructed in a CO 2 -tolerant clinical strain, we found mutations leading to CO 2 sensitivity are enriched in pathways activated by heat stress, including cal...
