Structural features of Cryptococcus neoformans bifunctional GAR/AIR synthetase may present novel antifungal drug targets
Cryptococcus neoformans is a fungus that causes life-threatening systemic mycoses. During infection of the human host, this pathogen experiences a major change in the availability of purines; the fungus can scavenge the abundant purines in its environmental niche of pigeon excrement, but must employ...
