Chitosan Biosynthesis and Virulence in the Human Fungal Pathogen Cryptococcus gattii
Cryptococcus gattii R265 is a hypervirulent fungal strain responsible for the recent outbreak of cryptococcosis in Vancouver Island of British Columbia in Canada. It differs significantly from Cryptococcus neoformans in its natural environment, its preferred site in the mammalian host, and its patho...
