Cysteine transport and sulfite reductase activity in a germination-defective mutant of Histoplasma capsulatum. |

| Abstract: | A mutant of the dimorphic, zoopathogenic fungus Histoplasma capsulatum, defective in the ability of its blastospores to germinate, was used to show that the nutritional requirement for cysteine and the expression of sulfite reductase activity are temperature dependent and not related to the growth form the fungus, whereas the kinetics of cysteine transport depend on both temperature and the form of the fungus. |
