Gene Overexpression/Suppression Analysis of Candidate Virulence Factors of Candida albicans
4 Jan 2008
Abstract excerpt
We developed a conditional overexpression/suppression genetic strategy in Candida albicans to enable simultaneous testing of gain or loss of function in order to identify new virulence factors. The strategy involved insertion of a strong, tetracycline-regulated promoter in front of the gene of interest. To validate the strategy, a library of genes encoding glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored surface...
