Abstract excerpt
Candida albicans secreted aspartyl proteinases (Sap), products of the SAP genes, which are presumed to act as virulence factors. In the C. albicans strain WO-1, the ability to secrete Sap1 is regulated with switch phenotype, another putative virulence factor. KpnI restriction fragment length poly...
