A multicopper oxidase gene from Candida albicans: cloning, characterization and disruption b bThe EMBL accession number for the sequence reported in this paper is Y09329.

Abstract excerpt

A multicopper oxidase gene from the human pathogenic yeast Candida albicans was isolated and characterized. An open reading frame of 1872 bp, designated CaFET3, was identified, encoding a predicted protein of 624 amino acids and a molecular mass of 70.5 kDa. The identity between the deduced amino acid sequences of CaFET3 and the Saccharomyces cerevisiae FET3 gene is 55%. CaFET3 was localized on chromosome 6. A...
