Bypass of Dfi1 Regulation of Candida albicans Invasive Filamentation by Iron Limitation

Bypass of Dfi1 Regulation of Candida albicans Invasive Filamentation by Iron Limitation

ABSTRACT Candida albicans filamentation, the ability to convert from oval yeast cells to elongated hyphal cells, is a key factor in its pathogenesis. Previous work has shown that the integral membrane protein Dfi1 is required for filamentation in cells grown in contact with a semisolid surface. Inve...
