摘要

Cryptococcus neoformans is an opportunistic human fungal pathogen commonly associated with infection in immunocompromised individuals (e.g., patients with HIV/AIDS). Important virulence determinants include the production of a polysaccharide capsule,melanin, and extracellular enzymes, as well as the ability to grow at 37°C. C. neoformans controls a plethora of host defense and evasion mechanisms to survive during infection and to proliferate within the host, causing meningoencephalitis and death. Traditionally, characterization of C. neoformans under different environmental conditions and stresses has relied on genetic and phenotypic analyses, as well as biochemical assays. However, advances in mass spectrometry instrumentation, sample preparationprotocols, and bioinformatic tools and databases promote comprehensive profiling of fungal cellular processes, secretion or protein release into the extracellular environment, and vesicle contents. Moreover, proteomics provides insight into regulatory mechanisms influencing signal transduction cascades and protein complexes or networks through profiling of post‐translational modifications and protein–protein interactions. Given the medical impact of C. neoformans infections and the recent emergence of antifungal‐resistant strains, defining proteins produced in response to unique environments provides an opportunity to uncover antivirulence strategies and alternative therapeutic options to combat infection. Here, we describe culturing and sample preparation of C. neoformans and outline protocols for comprehensively profiling changes in protein abundance within the cellular proteome and secretome.
