Detection of DOPA-Melanin in the Dimorphic Fungal Pathogen Penicillium marneffei and Its Effect on Macrophage Phagocytosis In Vitro
The fungal pathogen Penicillium marneffei produces melanin-like pigment in vitro. The synthetic pathway of melanin and its possible influence in the protective yeast cells surviving within macrophage cells are not known. In this work, P. marneffei produced brown black pigment in the presence of L-DO...
