(Submitter supplied) The ability to sense and adapt to a hostile host environment is a crucial element for virulence of pathogenic fungi, including Cryptococcus neoformans. These cellular responses are evoked by diverse signaling cascades, including the stress-activated HOG pathway. Despite previous analysis of central components of the HOG pathway, its downstream signaling network is poorly characterized in C. neoformans. more...

(Submitter supplied) The cAMP-pathway plays a central role in regulation of growth, differentiation, and virulence of human pathogenic fungi, including Cryptococcus neoformans. Three major upstream signaling regulators of the adenylyl cyclase (Cac1), Ras, Aca1 (Adenylyl cyclase-associated protein 1) and G-alpha subunit protein (Gpa1), have been identified to control the cAMP-pathway in C. neoformans, but their functional relationship remains elusive. more...

(Submitter supplied) Carbon dioxide (CO2) sensing, transport, and metabolism play a pivotal role in survival and proliferation of pathogenic microbes infecting human host from natural environments due to the drastic difference of CO2 levels. Carbonic anhydrases (CAs) are not only key CO2-metabolic enzymes catalyzing reversible interconversion between CO2 and bicarbonate (HCO3-), but also important CO2-signaling modulators. more...

(Submitter supplied) AP-1 like transcription factors play evolutionarily conserved roles in oxidative stress responses as redox sensors in eukaryotes. In this study, we aim to elucidate the regulatory mechanism of an atypical yeast AP-1 like protein, Yap1, in the stress response and virulence of Cryptococcus neoformans. YAP1 expression was induced not only by oxidative stresses, such as H2O2 and diamide, but also by other environmental stresses, such as osmotic and membrane destabilizing stresses. more...

(Submitter supplied) Melanin is an antioxidant polyphenol pigment, which is required for the pathogenicity of many human and plant fungal pathogens. Nevertheless, its comprehensive regulatory mechanism still remain elusive. In this study, we systematically analyzed melanin-regulating signaling pathways in Cryptococcus neoformans. Here we identified four core melanin-regulating TFs, Bzp4, Usv101, Mbs1, and Hob1, which are required for induction of the laccase gene (LAC1). more...

(Submitter supplied) The RNA interference (RNAi) mediated by homology-dependent degradation of the target mRNA with small RNA molecules plays a key role in controlling transcription and translation processes in a number of eukaryotic organisms. The RNAi machinery is also evolutionarily conserved in a wide variety of fungal species, including pathogenic fungi. To elucidate the physiological functions of the RNAi pathway in Cryptococcus neoformans that causes fungal meningitis, here we performed genetic analyses for genes encoding Argonaute (AGO1 and AGO2), RdRP (RDP1), and Dicers (DCR1 and DCR2) in both serotype A and D C. more...

(Submitter supplied) We report on our study the role of C. neoformans transcription factor Pdr802, whose expression is highly induced under host-like conditions in vitro and is critical for C. neoformans dissemination and virulence in a mouse model of infection. We found that direct targets of Pdr802 include the calcineurin targets Had1 and Pmc1, which are important for C. neoformans virulence, the transcription factor Bzp4, which promotes cryptococcal melanization and capsule thickness, and 35 transmembrane transporters. more...

(Submitter supplied) Cryptococcus neoformans is a prevalent human fungal pathogen that must survive within various tissues in order to establish a human infection. We have identified the C. neoformans Rim101 transcription factor, a highly conserved pH-response regulator in many fungal species. The rim101- mutant strain displays growth defects similar to other fungal species in the presence of alkaline pH, increased salt concentrations, and iron limitation. more...

(Submitter supplied) WD40 motif-containing Msi1-like (MSIL) proteins play pleiotropic cellular functions as a negative regulator of the Ras/cAMP-pathways and a component of chromatin assembly factor-I (CAF-I), and yet have not been studied in fungal pathogens. Here we identified and characterized an MSIL protein, Msl1, in Cryptococcus neoformans, which can cause fatal meningoencephalitis in humans. Notably, Msl1 was not a functional ortholog for the yeast Msi1 but played pleiotropic roles in C. more...
