Fungal Inositol Pyrophosphate IP(7) Is Crucial for Metabolic Adaptation to the Host Environment and Pathogenicity
Inositol pyrophosphates (PP-IPs) comprising inositol, phosphate, and pyrophosphate (PP) are essential for multiple functions in eukaryotes. Their role in fungal pathogens has never been addressed. Cryptococcus neoformans is a model pathogenic fungus causing life-threatening meningoencephalitis. We i...
