<i>Candida albicans</i> cell wall glycosidases <i>DFG5</i> and <i>DCW1</i> are required for biofilm formation and Hog-1 signaling

2018-02-15

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Candida albicans is a commensal fungus that inhabits the oral mucosal surface and causes oral and systemic candidiasis. Oral candidiasis most commonly occurs in patients with AIDS, denture wearers and newborn children. Systemic candidiasis occurs mainly in immunocompromised patients and patients admitted to hospitals for prolonged periods. The C. albicans homologous genes, DFG5 and DCW1 ,...
