A Peptide from Budding Yeast GAPDH Serves as a Promising Antifungal against Cryptococcus neoformans
Microbiology Spectrum, 2022 Infection of Cryptococcus neoformans is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality, particularly among immunocompromised patients. However, currently available drugs for the treatment of C. neoformans infection are minimal. Here, we report SP1,

Galactoxylomannans of Cryptococcus neoformans [PDF]
Infection and Immunity, 1992 Galactoxylomannans (GalXMs) from single isolates of Cryptococcus neoformans serotypes A, B, and D were isolated from culture supernatants and then purified by affinity, ion-exchange, and gel-filtration chromatography. GalXMs are a group of closely related complex polysaccharides.

Melanogenesis in Cryptococcus neoformans [PDF]
Microbiology, 1988 Melanogenesis in Cryptococcus neoformans begins with the oxidation of dihydroxyphenylalanine by the enzyme phenol oxidase. The succeeding steps are very rapid. Two intermediates, dopachrome and 5,6-dihydroxyindole, have been isolated and characterized by high performance liquid chromatography. A pathway of melanin formation in C. neoformans is proposed,
