Candida albicans estrogen-binding protein gene encodes an oxidoreductase that is inhibited by estradiol.
1 Feb 1994
Abstract excerpt
Candida albicans, the most common fungal pathogen of humans, possesses an estrogen-binding protein (EBP) that binds mammalian estrogens with high affinity. We report here the cloning and complete nucleotide sequence of a gene encoding a C. albicans EBP. Amino acid sequences obtained from cyanogen bromide fragments of purified EBP were used to design oligonucleotide primers for PCR. An 800-bp product was amplified...
