Regulation of chitin synthesis during dimorphic growth of Candida albicans.

Microbiology (Reading, England) - 1 Feb 1998

Munro C A, Schofield D A, Gooday G W, Gow N A R

Abstract excerpt

Candida albicans has three genes encoding chitin synthase enzymes. In wild-type strains, the expression of CHS2 and CHS3 peaked 1-2 h after the induction of hyphal growth, whilst mRNA levels in a non-germinative strain, CA2, remained low under the same conditions. CHS1 gene expression did not peak during germ tube formation but remained at low levels in both yeast and hyphal growth. The pattern of gene expression...
