Variation in repeat copy number of the Epithelial adhesin 1 tandem repeat region leads to variable protein display through multiple mechanisms

2019-12-11

Abstract excerpt

The pathogenic yeast Candida glabrata is reliant on a suite of cell surface adhesins that play a variety of roles necessary for transmission, establishment, and proliferation during infection. One particular adhesin, Epithelial Adhesin 1 [Epa1p], is responsible for binding to host tissue, a process which is essential for fungal propagation. Epa1p structure consists of three domains: an N-terminal intercellular bi...
