Differential PbP27 expression in the yeast and mycelial forms of the Paracoccidioides brasiliensis species complex

p27 is an antigenic protein produced by Paracoccidioides brasiliensis, the etiologic agent of paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM). Despite its unknown function, it has been suggested as a putative virulence factor, proposed as a suitable target for the design of diagnostic tools and vaccines, and considere...
