PAK Kinases Ste20 and Pak1 Govern Cell Polarity at Different Stages of Mating in Cryptococcus neoformans

Sexual identity and mating are linked to virulence of the fungal pathogen Cryptococcus neoformans. Cells of the α mating type are more prevalent and can be more virulent than a cells, and basidiospores are thought to be the infectious propagule. Mating in C. neoformans involves cell-cell fusion and...
