Opposing signaling pathways regulate morphology in response to temperature in the fungal pathogen Histoplasma capsulatum.
Phenotypic switching between 2 opposing cellular states is a fundamental aspect of biology, and fungi provide facile systems to analyze the interactions between regulons that control this type of switch. A long-standing mystery in fungal pathogens of humans is how thermally dimorphic fungi switch th...
