Integrated post-genomic cell wall analysis reveals floating biofilm formation associated with high expression of flocculins in the pathogen <i>Candida krusei</i>

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> The pathogenic yeast Candida krusei is more distantly related to Candida albicans than clinically relevant CTG-clade Candida species. Its cell wall, a dynamic organelle that is the first point of interaction between pathogen and host, is relatively understudied, and its wall proteome remains unidentified to date. Here, we present an integrated study of the cell wall in C. krusei . Our compar...
