Filamentous fungal pathogens have evolved diverse strategies to infect a variety of hosts
including plants and insects. The dynamic infection process requires rapid and fine-tuning …

Cryptococcus neoformans is a common environmental saprophyte and human fungal
pathogen that primarily causes disease in immunocompromised individuals. Similar to many …

Candida auris is an emerging multi-drug resistant yeast that causes systemic infections.
Here we show that C. auris undergoes replicative aging (RA) that results from asymmetric …

The human fungal pathogen Cryptococcus neoformans undergoes many phenotypic
changes to promote its survival in specific ecological niches and inside the host. To explore …

Cryptococcus neoformans (C. neoformans) is estimated to cause about 220,000 new cases
every year in patients with AIDS, despite advances in antifungal treatments. C. neoformans …

Phytopathogenic fungi must adapt to the different environmental conditions found during
infection and avoid the immune response of the plant. For these adaptations, fungi must …

Fungi, including yeasts, molds, and mushrooms, proliferate on decaying matter and then
adopt quiescent forms once nutrients are depleted. This review explores how fungi use …

Chromatin transitions are mediated in part by acetylation/deacetylation post‐translational
modifications of histones. Histone deacetylases, eg sirtuins (Sir‐proteins), repress …

Candida albicans, Candida auris, Candida glabrata, and Cryptococcus neoformans are
pathogenic yeasts which can cause systemic infections in immune-compromised as well as …

Similar to other yeasts, the human pathogen Candida glabrata ages when it undergoes
asymmetric, finite cell divisions, which determines its replicative lifespan. We sought to …
