Altered expression of surface protein WI-1 in genetically related strains of Blastomyces dermatitidis that differ in virulence regulates recognition of yeasts by human macrophages.
The molecular basis for pathogenicity and virulence of the dimorphic fungus Blastomyces dermatitidis remains unknown. WI-1 is a major cell wall protein of B. dermatitidis yeasts and is a recognition target of both humoral and cell-mediated immunity. As an initial study to determine if WI-1 might be...
