An adhesin of the yeast pathogen Candida glabrata mediating adherence to human epithelial cells.

Science (New York, N.Y.) - 23 Jul 1999

Cormack B P, Ghori N, Falkow S

Abstract excerpt

Candida glabrata is an important fungal pathogen of humans that is responsible for about 15 percent of mucosal and systemic candidiasis. Candida glabrata adhered avidly to human epithelial cells in culture. By means of a genetic approach and a strategy allowing parallel screening of mutants, it was possible to clone a lectin from a Candida species. Deletion of this adhesin reduced adherence of C. glabrata to...
