Zap1 Regulates Zinc Homeostasis and Modulates Virulence in Cryptococcus gattii
Zinc homeostasis is essential for fungal growth, as this metal is a critical structural component of several proteins, including transcription factors. The fungal pathogen Cryptococcus gattii obtains zinc from the stringent zinc-limiting milieu of the host during the infection process. To characteri...
