Recent advances in the genomic analysis of Candida albicans.
The release of the diploid genomic sequence of Candida albicans and its recent community-based annotation have permitted a number of studies which have significantly advanced our understanding of the biology of this important human pathogen. These advances range from analysis of genomic changes to differential gene expression under a variety of conditions. A few general conclusions can be drawn...
متن کاملGenomic evidence for a complete sexual cycle in Candida albicans.
Candida albicans is a diploid fungus that has become a medically important opportunistic pathogen in immunocompromised individuals. We have sequenced the C. albicans genome to 10.4-fold coverage and performed a comparative genomic analysis between C. albicans and Saccharomyces cerevisiae with the objective of assessing whether Candida possesses a genetic repertoire that could support a complete...
متن کاملIsogenic strain construction and gene mapping in Candida albicans.
Genetic manipulation of Candida albicans is constrained by its diploid genome and asexual life cycle. Recessive mutations are not expressed when heterozygous and undesired mutations introduced in the course of random mutagenesis cannot be removed by genetic back-crossing. To circumvent these problems, we developed a genotypic screen that permitted identification of a heterozygous recessive muta...
متن کاملA physical map of chromosome 7 of Candida albicans.
As part of the ongoing Candida albicans Genome Project, we have constructed a complete sequence-tagged site contig map of chromosome 7, using a library of 3840 clones made in fosmids to promote the stability of repeated DNA. The map was constructed by hybridizing markers to the library, to a blot of the electrophoretic karyotype, and to a blot of the pulsed-field separation of the SfiI restrict...
متن کاملCandida albicans
The secreted aspartyl proteinases of Candida albicans (products of the SAP genes) are thought to contribute to virulence through their effects on Candida adherence, invasion, and pathogenicity. From a single strain of C. albicans (WO-1) which expresses a phenotypic switching system, three secreted aspartyl proteinases have been identified as determined by molecular weight and N-terminal sequenc...
