The role of HIL1 in strain-level adhesion and immune recognition in Debaryomyces hansenii
The genetic tractability of D. hansenii is established as a genetically tractable system and adhesin polymorphisms may influence fungal behavior in food and disease contexts, and Hil1 is a key, strain-variable adhesin shaping fungal surface properties and host immune recognition.
