This study identifies distinct roles of STRIPAK subunits in Cryptococcus neoformans, showing that core subunits maintain genome stability and virulence while Mob3 promotes hypervirulence through enhanced host adaptation.

This study identifies two divergent Wee1-family kinases in Cryptococcus neoformans that function in a dosage-sensitive checkpoint to promote stress adaptation and virulence.

The paper identifies Wcp1, a WD40 protein with cyclophilin domains, as essential for CO2/heat tolerance and acidic pH adaptation in Cryptococcus neoformans, linking these functions to virulence.

This paper investigates the role of the STRIPAK complex in Cryptococcus neoformans, showing it regulates genome stability, sexual development, and virulence through functional characterization of its subunits.
