We have cloned a nucleotide sequence from Histoplasma capsulatum G222B corresponding to a heat inducible hsp82 gene, and determined its entire sequence and the flanking regions. During the temperature-controlled mycelium-to-yeast phase transition the gene is more actively transcribed at 37 degrees C in the temperature tolerant and mouse-virulent G222B strain, while 34 degrees C is the optimum for transcription in the temperature sensitive and mouse-avirulent Downs strain.

Abstract

We have cloned a nucleotide sequence from Histoplasma capsulatum G222B corresponding to a heat inducible hsp82 gene, and determined its entire sequence and the flanking regions. During the temperature-controlled mycelium-to-yeast phase transition the gene is more actively transcribed at 37 degrees C in the temperature tolerant and mouse-virulent G222B strain, while 34 degrees C is the optimum for transcription in the temperature sensitive and mouse-avirulent Downs strain.
