Mating system and mitochondrial inheritance in a basidiomycete yeast, Cryptococcus neoformans (2006)

Yan, Zhun

In the majority of sexual eukaryotes, mitochondria are inherited predominantly from a single, usually the female, parent. Like the majority of higher plants and animals, the pathogenic yeast...

Geographic Distribution of Mating Type Alleles of Cryptococcus neoformans in Four Areas of the United States

Yan, Zhun, Li, Xiaogang, Xu, Jianping

To better understand the epidemiology and population structure of Cryptococcus neoformans, we determined mating types for 358 C. neoformans strains isolated through the active surveillance program...

Mitochondria are inherited from the MATa parent in crosses of the basidiomycete fungus Cryptococcus neoformans.

Yan, Zhun, Xu, Jianping

Previous studies demonstrated that mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) was uniparentally transmitted in laboratory crosses of the pathogenic yeast Cryptococcus neoformans. To begin understanding the...

Precise Gene-Dose Alleles for Chemical Genetics

Yan, Zhun, Berbenetz, Nicolas M., Giaever, Guri, Nislow, Corey

Modulating gene dose is an effective way to alter protein levels and modify phenotypes to understand gene function. In addition, combining gene-dose alleles with chemical perturbation can provide...
