Nuclear BbAtg8 interacts with BbMac1 as a transcriptional modulator to sustain nuclear copper homeostasis during conidial germination

Pathogenic fungi endure host impose copper starvation by tightly coordinating trace metal homeostasis. However, how pathogens synchronize endogenous metal recycling with exogenous copper uptake to promote infection remains enigmatic. Using the entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria ba...
