Collaboration between Antagonistic Cell Type Regulators Governs Natural Variation in the Candida albicans Biofilm and Hyphal Gene Expression Network
22 Aug 2022
Abstract excerpt
Clinical isolates of all pathogens vary in the strength of traits linked to disease. In this study, we focused on variation in a pathogenicity trait of the fungal pathogen Candida albicans, biofilm formation. This trait is under the control of the cell type regulator Efg1. Expression of Efg1 is known from previous studies to be repressed by a second cell type regulator, Wor1. However, we found that natural...
