Mp1p Is a Virulence Factor in Talaromyces (Penicillium) marneffei.

Publikováno v: PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, Vol 10, Iss 8, p e0004907 (2016)

Talaromyces marneffei is an opportunistic dimorphic fungus prevalent in Southeast Asia. We previously demonstrated that Mp1p is an immunogenic surface and secretory mannoprotein of T. marneffei. Since Mp1p is a surface protein that can generate prote

Recently, we showed that Mp1p is an important virulence factor of Talaromyces marneffei, a dimorphic fungus phylogenetically closely related to Aspergillus fumigatus. In this study, we investigated the virulence properties of the four Mp1p homologues
