DNA Array Studies Demonstrate Convergent Regulation of Virulence Factors by Cph1, Cph2, and Efg1 in Candida albicans
1 Dec 2001
Abstract excerpt
Candida albicans, normally a human commensal, can cause fatal systemic infections under certain circumstances. Its unique ability to switch from yeast to hyphal growth in response to various environmental signals is inherent to its pathogenicity. Filamentation is regulated by multiple pathways including a Cph1-mediated mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway, an Efg1-mediated cAMP/PKA pathway, and a Cph2...
