Scope and Contents

Contents

alpha -1,3-Glucan is present as the outermost layer of the cell wall in the pathogenic yeastlike (Y) form of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis. Based on experimental evidence, this polysaccharide has been proposed as a fungal virulence factor. To degrade alpha -1,3-glucan and allow remodeling of the cell wall, alpha -1,3-glucanase is required. Therefor...
