An integrated transcriptomic and metabolomic approach to investigate the heterogeneous Candida albicans biofilm phenotype

Abstract excerpt

Candida albicans is the most prevalent and notorious of the Candida species involved in bloodstream infections, which is characterised by its capacity to form robust biofilms. Biofilm formation is an important clinical entity shown to be highly variable among clinical isolates. There are various environmental and physiological factors, including nutrient availability which influence the phenotype of Candida...
