malfunction |
an hcsA deletion mutant is lysine auxotrophic and unable to germinate on unhydrolyzed proteins given as a sole nutrient source. The mutant grows on blood and serum, indicating the existence of high-affinity lysine uptake systems. The virulence of the mutant is strongly attenuated in murine models of bronchopulmonary aspergillosis. The mutant retains full virulence when injected intravenously |
