Carbon Dioxide is a Powerful Inducer of Monokaryotic Hyphae and Spore Development in Cryptococcus gattii and Carbonic Anhydrase Activity is Dispensable in This Dimorphic Transition

Cryptococcus gattii is unique among human pathogenic fungi with specialized ecological niche on trees. Since leaves concentrate CO(2), we investigated the role of this gaseous molecule in C. gattii biology and virulence. We focused on the genetic analyses of β-carbonic anhydrase (β-CA) encoded by C....
