Expansion microscopy reveals characteristic ultrastructural features of pathogenic budding yeast species

Abstract excerpt

Candida albicans is the most prevalent fungal pathogen associated with candidemia. Similar to other fungi, the complex life cycle of C. albicans has been challenging to study with high-resolution microscopy due to its small size. Here, we employed ultrastructure expansion microscopy (U-ExM) to directly visualise subcellular structures at high resolution in the yeast and during its transition to hyphal growth....
