Molecular and Phenotypic Description of Coccidioides posadasii sp. nov., Previously Recognized as the Non-California Population of Coccidioides immitis [PDF]
Mycologia, 2002 Coccidioides posadasii sp. nov., formerly known as non-California (non-CA) Coccidioides immitis, is described. Phylogenetic analyses using single nucleotide polymorphisms, genes, and microsatellites show that C.

Genomic Data Mining Reveals Abundant Uncharacterized Transporters in Coccidioides immitis and Coccidioides posadasii [PDF]
Journal of Fungi (Basel, Switzerland), 2022 Coccidioides immitis and Coccidioides posadasii are causative agents of coccidioidomycosis, commonly known as Valley Fever. The increasing Valley Fever cases in the past decades, the expansion of endemic regions, and the rising azole drug-resistant ...

Profiling gene expression inCoccidioides posadasii
Medical Mycology, 2004Coccidioides posadasii is a dimorphic fungal pathogen which grows as a filamentous saprobe in the soil and multicellular parasitic form in host lung tissue. Studies of gene expression profiles during saprobic and parasitic phase development can provide clues about morphogenetic regulation and may lead to the discovery of molecular targets for novel ...

Demonstration of Coccidioides immitis and Coccidioides posadasii DNA in Soil Samples Collected From Dinosaur National Monument, Utah. [PDF]
Medical Mycology, 2014 Soil samples were collected in 2006 from Dinosaur National Monument (DNM), Utah, the site of an outbreak of coccidioidomycosis in 2001. DNA was isolated from two soil samples, and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplified Coccidioides DNA present in both samples.

Coccidioides posadasii produces melanin in vitro and during infection
Fungal Genetics and Biology, 2007Using techniques developed to study melanization in other fungi, we demonstrate that Coccidioides posadasii arthroconidia, spherules, and endospores produce melanin or melanin-like compounds in vitro and tissue forms synthesize pigment in vivo. Since melanin is an important virulence factor in other pathogenic fungi, it may affect the pathogenesis of ...

Coccidioides posadasiikeratouveitis in a llama (Lama glama)
Veterinary Ophthalmology, 2010A 7-year-old male llama was examined for a 3-month history of weight loss, and unilateral keratouveitis. Clinical examination revealed nonulcerative corneal stromal abscessation, corneal vascularization, corneal edema, miosis, posterior synechia, cataract, and fibrin in the anterior chamber of the right eye. The left eye was normal.

Nuclear Labeling of Coccidioides posadasii with Green Fluorescent Protein
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2007Abstract: Coccidioidomycosis is a mild to life‐threatening disease in otherwise healthy humans and other mammals caused by the fungus Coccidioides spp. Understanding the development of the unique dimorphic life cycle of Coccidioides spp. and its role in pathogenesis has been an area of research focus. However, nuclear behavior during the saprobic and
