Cryptococcus neoformans is the primary causative agent of cryptococcosis. Since C.
neoformans thrives in environments and its optimal growth temperature is 25–30° C, it …

The underlying mechanism of thermotolerance, which is a key virulence factor essential for
pathogenic fungi such as Cryptococcus neoformans, is largely unexplored. In this study, our …

The opportunistic human fungal pathogen Cryptococcus neoformans has tremendous
impact on global health, causing 181,000 deaths annually. Current treatment options are …

The human fungal pathogen Cryptococcus neoformans relies on a complex signaling
network for the adaptation and survival at the host temperature. Protein phosphatase …

Cryptococcosis is one of the leading causes of the deaths among AIDS patients. The high
mortality rates of cryptococcosis are mainly due to inadequate information of its major …

Cryptococcus neoformans is a basidiomycetous fungus and an opportunistic human
pathogen that causes infections in both immunocompromised and immunocompetent hosts …

The fungal pathogen Cryptococcus neoformans has three major virulence factors: growth at
37° C, capsule synthesis, and melanin formation. Recently in Cell, Liu et al.(2008) employed …

We describe here the functions of a Snf1/AMPK homolog in the human pathogenic yeast
