Phospholipase B is critical for Cryptococcus neoformans survival in the central nervous system

M. F. Hamed, G. Araujo, M. E. Munzen, M. Reguera Gomez, C. Epstein, H. H. Lee, s. frases, L. R. Martinez

This study shows that phospholipase B (PLB1) is essential for Cryptococcus neoformans survival in the central nervous system, as its deletion reduces fungal load and virulence in mice.
