Abstract excerpt
The phospholipid composition of various morphological mutants of Candida albicans revealed a complete absence of phosphatidylinositol (PI) from plasma membranes of those cells which completely lacked mycelial growth. No other phospholipid was found to be specific to morphogenesis. The plasma membrane fractions isolated from mutants were more rigid than its wild type as was evident from their unsaturation index...
