Abstract excerpt
Biofilm formation by the fungus Candida albicans is a central virulence trait that enables colonization of implanted medical devices and mucosal surfaces. Biofilm formation reflects a complex regulatory network, and depends upon multiple master regulators that include transcription factors Efg1 and Ndt80. It is well established that efg1Δ/Δ and ndt80Δ/Δ single gene mutants are defective in biofilm formation. We...
