<i>CaNAT1</i> , a Heterologous Dominant Selectable Marker for Transformation of <i>Candida albicans</i> and Other Pathogenic <i>Candida</i> Species

Abstract excerpt

A dominant selectable marker for Candida albicans and other Candida species, which confers resistance to nourseothricin, was characterized. In a heterologous promoter system and a recyclable cassette, the marker efficiently permitted deletion and complementation of C. albicans genes. Neither growth nor filamentous development was affected in strains expressing this marker.
