Characterization of an iron permease in Cryptococcus neoformans
Cryptococcus neoformans is an opportunistic fungal pathogen with worldwide distribution. Pathogenesis is mediated by several virulence factors including growth at 37°C, melanin synthesis and capsule formation. Expression of the thick polysaccharide capsule is stimulated under iron-limiting condit...
