The 5′ Untranslated Region of the <italic toggle="yes">EFG1</italic> Transcript Promotes Its Translation To Regulate Hyphal Morphogenesis in <italic toggle="yes">Candida albicans</italic>

ABSTRACT Extensive 5′ untranslated regions (UTR) are a hallmark of transcripts determining hyphal morphogenesis in Candida albicans. The major transcripts of the EFG1 gene, which are responsible for cellular morphogenesis and metabolism, contain a 5′ UTR of up to 1,170 nucleotides (nt). Deletion ana...
