Atomic Force Microscopy Demonstrates that <named-content content-type="genus-species">Candida glabrata</named-content> Uses Three Epa Proteins To Mediate Adhesion to Abiotic Surfaces

ABSTRACT The fungal pathogen Candida glabrata can cause both mucosal and disseminated infections. Cell adhesion, a key step in colonization and infection, depends in C. glabrata primarily on the Epa family of cell adhesion proteins. While Epa proteins have been documented to mediate specific adhesio...
