Disruption of the sphingolipid Delta8-desaturase gene causes a delay in morphological changes in Candida albicans.

Microbiology (Reading, England) - 1 Dec 2008

Oura Takahiro, Kajiwara Susumu

Abstract excerpt

Ceramides and glycosylceramides, including desaturated long-chain bases, are present in most fungi as well as animals and plants. However, as the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is not capable of desaturating long-chain bases, little is known about the physiological roles of these compound...
