Cryptococcus, a major cause of disseminated infections in immunocompromised patients, kills over 600,000 people per year
worldwide. Genes involved in the virulence of the meningitis-causing fungus are being characterized at an increasing rate, and to
date, at least 648 Cryptococcus gene names have been published. However, these data are scattered...
