Roles of Candida albicans Dfg5p and Dcw1p cell surface proteins in growth and hypha formation.

Eukaryotic cell - 1 Aug 2003

Spreghini Elisabetta, Davis Dana A, Subaran Ryan, Kim Michelle, Mitchell Aaron P

Abstract excerpt

The Candida albicans cell wall participates in both growth and morphological transitions between yeast and hyphae. Our studies here focus on Dfg5p and Dcw1p, two similar proteins with features of glycosylphosphatidylinositol-linked cell surface proteins. Mutants lacking Dfg5p are defective in alk...
