The MICOS Complex Regulates Mitochondrial Structure and Oxidative Stress During Age-Dependent Structural Deficits in the Kidney

Prasanna Katti, Praveena Prasad, Sepiso Kenias Masenga…·Antentor Othrell Hinton Jr.

This study investigates age-related mitochondrial structural deficits in the kidney, finding that the MICOS complex is impaired, leading to increased oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction.

Amoeba Predation of Cryptococcus: A Quantitative and Population Genomic Evaluation of the Accidental Pathogen Hypothesis

Thomas J. C. Sauters, Cullen Roth, Debra Murray…·Paul M. Magwene

The paper tests the accidental pathogen hypothesis by identifying a QTL linked to amoeba resistance and melanization in Cryptococcus species, finding no correlation with macrophage resistance or virulence.

Pleiotropy and Epistasis Within and Between Signaling Pathways Defines the Genetic Architecture of Fungal Virulence

Cullen Roth, Debra Murray, Alexandria Scott…·Paul M. Magwene

This paper identifies genetic loci and pathways underlying virulence traits in Cryptococcus deneoformans using QTL mapping and finds that key signaling pathways contribute to phenotypic variation.
