Project description:We developed a seminested PCR for the diagnosis of histoplasmosis that amplifies a portion of the Histoplasma capsulatum H antigen gene. This assay is highly sensitive and specific, being able to detect genomic material corresponding to less than 10 yeast cells without cross-reaction against other bacterial or fungal pathogens.
Project description:Genome-wide reprogramming of transcript architecture by temperature specifies the developmental states of the human pathogen Histoplasma [ribosome profiling]
