Unraveling Capsule Biosynthesis and Signaling Networks in Cryptococcus neoformans
ABSTRACT The polysaccharide capsule of Cryptococcus neoformans—an opportunistic basidiomycete pathogen and the major etiological agent of fungal meningoencephalitis—is a key virulence factor that prevents its phagocytosis by host innate immune cells. However, the complex signaling networks for their...
