The fungal pathogen Cryptococcus neoformans survives phagocytosis by macrophages and
proliferates within, ultimately establishing latent infection as a facultative intracellular …

The phenotypic plasticity of Cryptococcus neoformans is widely studied and demonstrated in
vitro, but its influence on pathogenicity remains unclear. In this study, we investigated the …

Cryptococcus neoformans is a fungus that causes the majority of fatal cryptococcal
meningitis cases worldwide. This pathogen is capable of assuming different morphotypes …

Sexual reproduction is critical for successful evolution of eukaryotic organisms in adaptation
to changing environments. In the opportunistic human fungal pathogens, the Cryptococcus …

Cryptococcus neoformans is a ubiquitously distributed human pathogen. It is also a model
system for studying fungal virulence, physiology and differentiation. Light is known to inhibit …

Cryptococcus neoformans is an opportunistic fungal pathogen with a defined sexual cycle in
which the α allele of the mating type locus is linked to virulence and haploid differentiation …

Cryptococcus neoformans is a fungal pathogen responsible for> 200,000 yearly cases with
a mortality as high as 81%. This burden results, in part, from an incomplete understanding of …

The use of insertional mutagenesis to discover genes that impact laccase activity has
resulted in the identification of multiple cellular processes that affect the fitness of …

Cryptococcus neoformans is an important human fungal pathogen that also serves as a
model for studies of fungal pathogenesis. C. neoformans contains several genes encoding …

Cryptococcus neoformans is an opportunistic fungal pathogen that causes life-threatening
meningitis primarily in immunocompromised individuals. In order to survive and proliferate …
